So what will people actually do if the device is not released in a few weeks?

Personally I think we need a straight ****ing answer from the Nokia especially now when the person who said there will be a Meego device this year has left the building...

I think because of big problem to selling Symbian (Some reasons because of MrFlop) phones they may stop the plan to release it they already have a big warehouse full of Symbian phones so why introduce just another one with and OS than no one knows about except this forum?

I hope I am wrong but.... I have a feeling we will get VERY dissapointed in a few weeks...

Infact I dont see ANY reason for them to release it except if they really are 1000% sure they sell well.

Maybe the plan WAS to release but now it seems questionable.

People will use N900, and wait until some vendor will produce a Meego compatible handset? If Nokia is really going to screw everyone's expectations this last time, it'll be bad for their image. But I guess Elop doesn't care about it. He already did it before.

LOL how many N900 users do you think is using it nowdays and wait for the new device?

My guess is bad image for some N900 users doesn't count.

Many has leaved already going to Android, IOS or WebOS.

I guess not many is even knowing Nokia actually planed to release a Meego(tablet/handset)

Most people already think "Nokia means WP7" And as we already has seen in this thread many here seems to like Wp7 anyway...

And btw. I doubt there will be any other handsetmaker running Meego it still is to risky for them. They have theyr Androids.

Personally I am so sick and tired of waiting so if there is not announce something end of July (around six weeks) I take it as Meego is really dead inside Nokia.

So I will go for an XperiaPro or Samsung GS2 and hope community efforts make it possible to run some Open Meego on it...

Well.. believe it or not, i am "friends" with a few people at the top of Nokia.. "on facebook".. Elop being one of them (he never uses it.. but his wife actively uses her profile..)

Mr T who i spoke to earlier didn't seem too hopeful that there would be a device... i'm only mentioning what was said. I'm as disappointed as the next person about this...
