Yes, within the browser, there is an option to make the website you are on into an App. (basically, an icon)

I'm just happy that N9 is still based on Debian and uses .deb packages.

so is this "Meego" or not ?

"Meego" in the sense that future non-Nokia Meego handset updates can be put onto this device ?

i looked around and havent found a "yes" or "no" answer yet

Harmattan UX on top of Meego 1.2 - I think.

alright for those who are still unsure on the next successor of N9, Elop replied to Helsingin Sanomat:

I think the meego/maemo team succeeded in punching Elop face by making N9 the way it is today. It has raised many thoughs on the WP-only strategy by Elop since the N9 received so many positive view from the web.

"I have been in contact with service provides and consumer test groups..."
-Elop

Fck sake. What they know? Service provides are only interested in how to shovel boot up in consumers arse and I bet that these test groups consist engadget idiots who just stare at specs and apps. Future..we should think about future. Meego product family is already it. Ecosystem ready to be expanded, it has been build right way from bottom from perspective of consumers and hardware vendors.

Skydrive, Zune, Xbox live,...dear god.
Only good and potential thing is office suite and how itīs integrated between different devices. Still I just canīt see how it could be possible to use Microsoft products in wide range of platforms in my everyday life. Why on earth I would want to bind myself to vendors A or C binaryblob or pay some extra money on licenses?

the "plus more" part is the external design that was needed to show the iPhone worshippers that the N900 / Maemo goodness now comes into a package that looks equally "sexy" according to their criteria.

Does it succeed: yes!
If you don't tell them iPhoners about the N900's keyboard advantage, resistive screen advantage , that even the N8 was coming with HDMI out and Xenon flash USB on the go, memory extension possibility, FM, IR on the N900, ... they will never know we have even been deprived of that

Take your Magenta N9 down town next week to a strategic hipster coffee spot and swipe your open apps / icons / etc mindlessly into infinity with your gaze focused on a far horizon and enjoy your RAM upgrade...

Utopia situation obviously would be never having to close anything, which is actually true for WP7 and co (due to suspension). N9 is already close with real multitasking, so that's something.
Yeah but we don't just want technically inclined people to be able to "fix" this.
We want it fixed before it's released to the mass-market...
So that meego does -pound for pound- throw the blows as well as wp7!
There needs to be a mechanism for hard-core maemo/meego users to submit these sort of complaints to nokia.

Yeah but it was nowhere near as pervasive as advertising for some other massively popular phones.
Hey, are you doing your full impression of the n9 on shootpseak soon?

No it's not based on meego-core (vanilla meego) 1.2....
It's based on maemo 6 w/a healthy dose of meego compatibility layer

*EDIT*
Is there an option to be emailed when someone quotes you in this forum?
I can't see it in the CP...

Clearly, it took less to impress you. Tell me why and hopefully I can understand why I or anyone else should be impressed and why you think others should like it. (Otherwise, what's the point of forums? It would be boring/annoying to descend into yet another religious cult-like iOS-like forum?)
It does what I want a phone to do, but does so prettier, nicer, and faster. For many like me, it really doesn't need more than that.

In the future I might have to consider a WP7 instead (which may very likely have incorporated many of the innovations of the N9 by then), but that future is not now. What I know is that the N9 will be a good companion to me for the foreseeable future, and everything after that is unforeseeable by definition.
