Ok, I confess that I hold out some hope that enterprising hackers will be able to take the Flash 10 binary from some other (CPU & kernel) compatible device and get it running on the N900. However, that hack would be technically illegal and may arouse the ire of some company or other. But again, I hope not...

I'm starting to think Nokia betrayed us and we won't see 10.1 until MeeGo.

If 10.1 final comes out and there's not a Maemo version, then complain. This is just a beta version.

So stop waiting.
I took Fixed in Fremantle with a shrug and a smile. This time though, there's no underpowered OMAP 2420, no Rube Goldberg display hardware, no minuscule guaranteed on-board storage, no cramped RAM. This time there's only the game.

We work closely with Nokia, but do not have any announcements to make today regarding Maemo 5.* Stay in touch.

And I know you know very well how long the wait has been.

Well, thankfully there's hope that we might get Android fully running in our N900 and get Flash 10 that way.

That effectively tells us no Nokia sanctioned MeeGo on the N900.
Unless by N900, it was really meant as Maemo5

I swallowed the "no OS2007 on 770" eventually. I understood why Fremantle wasn't ported to the N8x0. Hell, I even understand why PR1.2 isn't available yet. And actually I don't care about Flash at all, I hate it. But if the N900 could run 10.1 technically and they don't include it in a future upgrade, they better have a very good excuse for that.
