as those phones are not meant to be hackable nor we will have access to their drivers, ireally doubt it will happen.
Also, i think E7 is also based on an arm11 cpu. that CPU is really good on power consuption not so much on anything else. So even if you get meego on it will be slow.
If miracle occurs and the E7 will have a working meego image, ill be joinin this party =)

Meego is far from done. To introduce it now would turn people off and have a more divesting effect. What needs to be done is the promotion of Symbian^3 till Meego is ready. Meego would be good to go before WP7 is ready (Early 2012 I think, correct me please).

...it's not a matter of hardware - it's the missing ecosystem and the problem that MeeGo is far from done to run within the hands of normal users (not talking about N900 nerds ;-))

Sorry, I don't think the E7 has enough processing capabilities to run MeeGo.

"I wonder if Nokia would take a shortcut, and introduce Meego on the E7 to get it on the market faster?"
Getting Nokia to introduce MeeGo to anything but the back room development crew is going to be a challenge with the current crew. But if the PlanB folks have their way that might change. So, knowing other things have to happen first what about the E7 and MeeGo? Who knows, someone might figure out how to hack it on there without Nokia's help.
