The question I have in mind is that I know that Nokia and Moblin are working on a combined OS for their devices, but is the approach more like windows mobile 7, that companies can't customized the UI the Os is only one and runs the same on all hand held devices. Because LG is bringing MeeGo smartphone as well, so do Nokia & LG and in future others have the same UI(OS) but only the hardware differentiates, Is that rue or all Nokia and Moblin hard work will be shared by others..???

so you are the fool. that is the point. IMO it is the most stupid thing to do: spend your money to a device that you think it isn't worth the money but possibly is in the future.

the ironic thing is that one of the selling points of the phone is its opennesss and community, both of which ONLY provide benefits IN THE FUTURE, and it is the community which current disatisfied n900 users fear will move on mostly to meego. that and the "fixed in hartleman" stuff of course. fact of the matter is, many of us dont know what meego will be (read ari's blog, he doesnt know 100% either) but what we DO care is that we are left with a dead end phone cause everyone has rushed off to this new thing
but fanboys will be fanboys
at the end of the day, nokia only listens to $$$, sell/return your n900 and buy another phone and tell your friends the same

I am sure most of the crucial bugs will be taken care off by nokia in the next firmware updates. Another thing to remember is that harmattan/maemo 6 are going to be based on omap3 which is the same hardware as n900 so i assume 95% of the changes to harmattan will be somehow applied to n900. Ofcourse the crucial thing is that the n900 does not support capacitative multitiouch so that may be the biggest obstacle to harmattan on n900.
Most of maemo 5 is already very nice. Some of the features missing are in regular phone department which nokia is king anyway. It just takes some time to get them all into this new platform.
Just enjoy your n900.... because no matter how much you guys complain we know that there is nothing near to n900 when it comes to a portable mobile computer.
I just wish the next device comes with a bigger screen. .... somewhere around 5 inches would be perfect.

I havent read the whole thread so apologies if this has already been picked upon but...
Has anyone noticed the the N900 is on the home page of
Meego.com??
http://www.meego.com
I know it is just marketing, but it is interesting that they would use the N900 if Meego isnt going to be available for it??
This is like Ubuntu and Yellow Dog Linux and Red Hat Linux. All are linux and all are using the same core kernal and libraries but different compilation of software.
FACT!
NOKIA N900 WILL NEVER GET MEEGO NOR MAEMO6.
FACT!
NOKIA N900 WILL NEVER GET VIDEO CALLING, PORTRAIT MODE ETC..
FACTS... so MANY facts...
