The device Rick mentions is indeed real and under development. Meego-Harmattan device with code name "dali" is dead and gone, but as far as I know, a device code name "lankku" is alive and kicking. Nobody knows when it will be shipping, but I really look forward to see it in action. If it is decent, has full featured Ovi Maps, then I'll go for it. It seems Nokia has backed up a bit after huge uproar due to changing strategy, they still insist that they go on with Windows Phone, but they seem to underline the significance and continued effort of their S40, MeeGo and Qt. Which is actually something I might prefer - let the trendsheeps have those Windows Phoneys and make MeeGo something else. Not like ordinary iPhone/Android-clone but something entirely different, aimed at high end and power users. Afterall, it was what Maemo and MeeGo was supposed to be in the first place - one of the biggest fears I have seen in these forums is that MeeGo was reduced to "another Android".
