I think this is short sighted. Maemo is a dead end, from the development point of view. The CSSU people are doing a great work, but the core packages are not going to change.

A MeeGo distribution, instead, would mean modern base packages, and an upgrade path -- hopefully an upgrade every six months...

And applications may not be the best in the class from the start -- I don't know, but open source means improvement need not come from the vendor.

If the device keeps being useful for its core functions, and has an upgrade path, I would not ask for anything else. Ultimately, it will be in the community hands.
