How are you even going to field test your app? There isnt a release (that I know of) you can run to test on. You can do limited testing on any qt platform, but thats no substitute for actual on-platform testing.

This is both mild criticism and honest inquisition on these issues.

MeeGo runs already on a Tablet (WeTab), a Netbook (Fujitsu - something and the Lenovo Netvertible as well as nearly every other Netbook) and a Handset (Nokia N900, quite usable already).
If a developer needs further devices to test on please read again this post: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...5&postcount=51

Edit: To clarify this a little bit more. We expect at least one new MeeGo device before the end of the competition.
Every developer participating in the competition with a cool app should get in contact with us if a MeeGo device is needed.
