qt is not the most important support (nobody but a geek gives a toss about qt). Qt compatibility means nothing to a non-power user. It is access to apps in the official ecosystem that matters. Apple taught EVERYONE that. Goog is following them with android.

The most important support is an assurance that the n900 will be able to participate in the official ecosystem that they will build for Meego, PERIOD. Nothing else matters. And only an official release of Meego OR an explicit statement from Nokia (hah if you believe them) is any assurance of this.

What you will get is more unsupported apps through Qt compatibility if the vendors are kind enough. And some more apps from the community who are kind enough to port them, thats it.

But official support from the big vendors ? lolers. That is GONE with no Meego.

No new version of flash (watch as the n900 loses access to websites as they upgrade to v10), no google maps, no official games.

I will eat my words if Qt compatilibty causes the big vendors to release official versions of their apps for the n900.

Trolling ? BS ? Fear mongering ?

I shake my head at some of you. If you are a geek who wants to tinker then the n900 is the uberchoice. But you cross the line to fanboy if you think the n900 at this stage is good for anything else.

But those who believe Qt compatibility will make the n900 even a vague shadow of the other eco
Lol!.. you are still writing even when you already have been proven wrong.

Apple are for kids.. the only thing might be as good as MeGoo/Maemo is Android.

Nokia has done it again.

Another POS phone in my hands. I guess this will be the final major update.

Goodbye Nokia

For me that's not a surprise, but now I can say for sure I will avoid Nokia devices for the rest of my life!!!

Maemo 5 is just 6 months old and it is being abandoned, no matter what Nokia or fanboys say about getting incremental upgrades.... PR1.2 was so late because it is the last big update, from now just critical bug corrections!! We already can see that now by Flash 10.1 support... only for Meego...

Even if Meego is the better OS out there, I will be sure to buy it from some other supplier like HTC. I've been a Nokia fan for a long time but now I just can't see any advantage compared to competitors...

What way too many people here miss is that "not commercially supported" does not negate "fully working".

Please note that your words are nothing more than pure speculation. As a matter of fact, all we can do now is speculate. But please don't act like your words are facts!

First of all I want to state that I do like the Maemo desktop a lot more than all I have seen from Meego till now but ...

as a matter of fact NOKIA promised to release Meego on the N900 during the Nokia developers forum (Nokia Mobile Monday) at FH Hagenberg on the 5th of march.

It doesn't bother me that Meego will not be released on the N900 because I do not like it anyway but I'm REALLY disappointed about the lie.

Okay, we knew this for 3 months already.
What's new?

Community support is fine and dandy, but as we can see from the previous attempt; they're not the speediest release around.

I can understand this, given there's not much incentive to put effort into it and a generally shrinking userbase don't help either.

It will be released on the N900! What it won't be is commercially supported. If you flash MeeGo on it, Nokia Care won't be holding your hand through it.
