Well, I don't think it is an unreasonable
exceptation for them to provide an adequate
upgrade path for their devices.

world one would just go to the competitor,
but in this case none of them seem seem to
an appropriate package of hardware and software done.

The question is not when Meltemi will be ready for market, but whether Nokia will survive as a company capable of producing and selling handsets with in-house-produced software until that day...

I second pycages sentiments, oh the tragic irony that we have to rely on some unlikely form of WP success in order to see the next iteration of badass Linux devices (assuming some of the rumours are true, but google Microsoft + Nokia's operator troubles with Skype for your bubble to be burst), I'm not talking about Meltemi though, I'm intrigued by this upcoming announcement but in all seriousness, a great OS on low end hardware is not badass no matter how you look at it, the future is where my bleak hopes are aimed.
1. first of Qt5 is still beta so no way that will come on those "soon too be announced" devices. The QT5 team has actually said Qt will not be release in June as first was the case.
2. Also I do not think those rumored devices will be released in European/US.
3. Nokia N9 has bee removed from the homepages here in northeruopean.
So as long as Nokia dont show were the **** they will go I have no trust in them.,
HOwever I agree about QT. Its alive an will kick asses as soon as we get more devices from other companys. Blackberry 10, Vivaldi and so on..
