You really are wrong person too trust in this case.
Next week you will say Maemo5 still alive.
Funny is you dont have a clue what your talking about.
Your so called "sources" may very well lie to you and probadly make fun of it at the end.
Your posts is more and more ridiculous for every post in this thread.
Last week you said you should sell N9 to people on this forum. Who the HELL will buy devices from you when you a week later spaming in the same thread saying N9 is dead!? :-O :-O
Epic Fail
I personally wll not buy it so your rant proves nothing Mike.
Am i the only one on this thread that has stated the demises of the N9? i think you better read from the begginng again so you now who has said what.
Your a clear meego fanboy and you hate any bad talk if it

Guys, guys...

It is clear that Nokia held the world's trophy in device manufacturing untill it failed on the OS development side with Maemo and Meego.
It is going to be a very interesting year to follow from here on, a year from now will tell all i think.

Some of us are capable of separating our personal feelings regarding Maemo and MeeGo from our opinions regarding the future. I like Maemo, and don't regret buying my N900. Based on my experiences with the N950, I'm not quite as keen on Meego-Harmattan (SwipeUX feels unfinished and less productive than Maemo). I still like it enough to buy an N9, were it not for the fact that it will have no manufacturer support. I don't want to risk having my faulty N9 replaced with a Windoze device in a few months time.
So, the first and only Meego-Harmattan device will be unsupported, and there are no Meego handsets on the horizon. That spells FAIL, no matter how much I might personally want Meego to succeed.

Anyway, what I said was that WP will eventually take over for the N9 or Harmattan if you will.
It is getting a bit clearer now. UK, Ge, Esp, NL and possibly It will get he first batch of WP phones, codename Searay. The rest of Europe, S America, Russia and Asia will get the N9. This will happen within a month. Sometime during the first half of 2012, the new Nokia WP flagships will arrive world wide incl USA.
Within a month we will also see the 600, 700 and 701 with Belle. In 2-3 months Belle will be available for all Symbian^3 devices. The new camera monster, the 801, will come soon as well, with Belle.
Harmattan/MeeGo will go away, but Swipe will not. Swipe is here to stay, it's a question of how and where.

Ultimately, though, you're saying WP7 is supposed to take over the N9/Harmattan markets? I'm not sure how this translates, considering the N9 doesn't yet have a market (soon?)... and where it will be released, it's not really being replaced by WP7's--It's sold alongside. If you want to point out that it's going to outsell the N9's, I'd like to know where you got the numbers for EITHER sales so far. It would be interesting to watch as time goes on.

Perhaps that is the approach that is taken by the top brass at Nokia, which would explain their recent failures. Maybe they thought the N97 was cool.

Maybe right now, they are thinking 'SwipeUX is so cool, we don't need to bother marketing the N9. Hell, let's not even bother to sell it in most of the world. We can just sell it in Timbuctoo, and people from all over the world will buy one via some online retailer with no reputation'.
