Since you asked which one, I'm going out on a limb and say you are not going to be developing for MeeGo, are you? So, simple answer is, stay away from it. Play with NITDroid. Plenty to discover there.

At the moment MeeGo for handsets is nowhere near end-user friendly, it is meant for devels only. You could spend hours scrambling through the installation instructions just to end up asking later why the UI is sluggish and nothing really works.

Instead, try NITDroid if you want gaming fun/Android exposure, or, to satisfy the inner-Linuxist in you, try Ubuntu/Fedora/Arch http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...292#post889292 from chroot, or, dualbooting Ubuntu http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=58083&page=6

ive tried nitdroid but...
none for now, since none of them are actually finished
if theyre both finished, probably android coz of so much apps and stuff.

then wipe your memory card and use it for storage as neither are of any real use

Nitdroid is some fun for awhile. Something like EasyDebian is the best alternate environment. I've tried them all and am sticking with maemo.

Please don't mock NITdroid if you haven't tried the current version of it.

I would recommend NITdroid because it can run those fancy android apps/games/emulators perfectly.
