The sad thing is, if there's really going to be that one MeeGo device announced in 2011, I am probably going to consider buying it. Knowing in advance it will have no company support, no future, no upgrade path.

It'll be a community phone, Nokias step child, but it might be the only phone on the peak hour of a most powerful platform.

The N900 is unique, like the Openmoko was. If there ever is going to be a MeeGo product, that might be yet another dying star in that night sky.

And who knows, a generation after that, Nokia might make desktop Windows 8 phones, as opposed to Zune phones.
