No, I love nokia and meego looks awesome but I will wait for the device to come out. After dealing with the n900 release, I will wait.

Here's where objectivity kicks in for sure: even as a former employee I can't defend Nokia's service. It may be as good as some, but it's not even close to best. Their forward logistics are awesome. Reverse logistics, especially for end users, fail miserably.

Google says this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_logistics

But in a broader sense, return/repair operations can also be included.

The only valid alternative to Nokia is iphone.
But in Europe Apple sells iphone at exaggerate and unrealistic prices. For example in my country the iphone 4 32 GB's price is € 779 that is equivalent to $ 779 x 1,3 = $ 1012.
I hope that next Meego devices will be cheaper.

I love Nokia products hardware-wise but I am a little dubious about long-term support (software-wise).

From a hardware point of view I would buy Nokia again but software-wise and support not a chance.

I will have the n900 (very happy with it) for the next 2 or 3 years and will wait and see how Nokia perform.
again meego is not a full new os its still linux at the end. They drop hildon_desktop yes, but the core os is the same as today. also they did abandon hildon long before meego project started this was because they decided to use QT instead and that is a good decision in the long run, ofcourse gtk developers dislike this, but for the enduser and Nokia its right direction.

Why cant people understand this? when it has been discussed over andd over again.

and also who has said N900 will not be supported? its true we dont get meego core but alot of the QT apps in meego and symbian will probadly be backported both by nokia and the community.

I hasn't happened. Community can't fix closed source applications.
N900 is closed, don't be so naive.

Well I need new secondary backup/binge drinking/etc -phone as the old is getting old indeed. S30/S40 still totally rule in the <100€ price point, so there's one definite Nokia purchase.

As far as my next smartphone is concerned, my answer would be maybe. I had kind of decided to not go anywhere near Symbian until S^4, but I sort of like what I've seen on previews and will at least give S^3 decent amount of in shop test time. For next Meego/Harmattan-device I would really need a solid promise from Nokia that the science project and "step x out of y" stuff is over, and Meego/Harmattan will receive same level of support as their other platforms.
