Yes Im interested to see Meego on the n900, but only out of curiousity, because nothing has changed, I still have a great phone, with massive potential/possibilities that will easily last me the length of my contract.
I don't think I have seen a slowing down of app releases or activity on this forum, so its not like the n900 has been dropped, it is still a very hot phone.
Yes, you are totally correct N900 is amazing peace of hardware, but if there is no support and refreshments of the software from Nokia (or else) it is a dead device.
We are still waiting the Nokia`s answer about future of N900....
I still hope Nokia will make right decision and support N900 as a real top device. At least we pray...
Regards.

engadget have contacted nokia and nokia cleared yesterdays BS up.
Nokia said the door is not closed but a final decision is yet to be made, which is what people have been saying all along but nobody as been listening.
if you want to read the article go to engadget, i'm not linking to it b/c i dont like the site and dont like giving them view counts if i can help it

PR1.2 and I hear there is now even a PR1.3?? are taking forever to get ready because they are investing time and resources elsewhere. That's not what I expect after 5 months.

I am sure most of N900 users have thoughts to use their devices at least for year-year and a half...
Think about it.

Your N900 isn't going to suddenly stop working when Nokia decide to release no more updates! So please, stop worrying

Which device has had an update timetable announced further than the next release?

Why did you buy a n900
was it because of the always on connectivity? Meego or no meego, you still have that...
was it because of the openess of the platform? Meego or no meego, you still have that...
Was it becuase of the community behind Maemo? Meego or no meego, you still have that...
The best browser on a mobile? Meego or no meego, you still have that...
Superb multi-tasking? Meego or no meego, you still have that...
Yes Im interested to see Meego on the n900, but only out of curiousity, because nothing has changed, I still have a great phone, with massive potential/possibilities that will easily last me the length of my contract.
I don't think I have seen a slowing down of app releases or activity on this forum, so its not like the n900 has been dropped, it is still a very hot phone.
If you are really thinking of getting an iphone, then the n900 might not have been the phone for you in the 1st place. Its not like Apple don't have their own problems, 3 yrs and there is still no multitasking on their phones..
