You do that, I'll whip out the mount gay rum, coke and a bag of ice.

Now if that thing could emulate a lime tree, I,m all for it.

Sure its just too early maybe to judge about Meego but to say the Iphone will be dead about Meego gains new Partners sorry but this isnt a good argument too..
Agree.

Why do you think that Meego will become such a big competitor to the apple os or android?
You just have to look at the names of the companies who are with MeeGo. I think it tells quite much. Just alone Intel and Nokia partnership can bring some fresh hardware to the game. I have a feeling that the number of companies involved will grow after first devices are announced. Pretty sure LG is one of those and that is just one. They did cancel GW990 but im sure there will be a new one coming up. Their android phones aren't going sell enough so LG has to make something new to diffrentiate from Samsung and HTC.

Because after the world will have MeeGo, noone will want such an obsolete thing as an iPhone.

If you are so sure about it, do you want to bet some amount of money on it?

There is a proverb in where I live.

Some serious thoughts....Why is Apple Iphone considered the thing to be beaten down? Why is the Iphone the benchmark to weigh against? Why is every phone made or to be made supposed to be an Iphone killer?

Is this a jinx or is the hardware really worth it ?....I am not sure but i guess apple/Jobs can really feel proud, not merely by the success of the hardware but for this reference point they have created

Well, it certainly works better at not treating its owner like the enemy. I mean, unless you -like- having to fight Apple for control over your device (assuming that means anything to you.)

How can you talk about Meego as the Iphone Killer if you just have a command promt now?
I think he's talking, you know, down the line. I don't think he's right, but pointing at a pre-release version of the OS is pointless.

We dont have a damn bugfixing update on the N900 until now (called PR1.2.)
To date there have been two updates. Perhaps you joined us after they were out?

Apple waltzed into the cellular space and basically showed the entire industry that they had no clue what they were doing in terms of user experience, and proved all of them wrong. In ~3 years it pulled a lot of people who were content with dumbphones to upgrade to a smartphone, people who would have otherwise ignored windows mobile, symbian, or blackberry devices.

How to compete with that top-to-bottom user experience is something pretty much every other vendor is trying to figure out, minus having iTunes to work with.

The problem is Nokia.. If Nokia is out of the way then everything will run smoothly.. they don't care about Maemo 5!! Nor will they care about MeeGo!
