They will release a successor, better late then never. But it is highly anticipated, and might not stand up to the expectations of the average Maemo user.

If Nokia is keeping Maemo alive, I bet it's more like on pills rather than maturing. We know they were focussing on MeeGo instead of Maemo, and if they have been working on Maemo6 since the 'wontfix' period, I'm not expecting that much.

Having said that, can this mean that the persumably N950 is closing to completion whilse MeeGo 1.2 is that far from completion still it's more strategic for Nokia to expand/mature) Maemo further?
