Edit: I just pulled this off of a forum by a user named sturlamolden from Velocity Reviews and it sums up my own opinions as well as what I've been told from instructors:
- Coding? Yes, if you program 'pythonic'.
- String handling? Often.
- I/O and networking? Often.
- Iteration? No.
- Function calls and recursion? No.
- Arithmetics with elemental types? No.
- Numerics? Yes, if you use NumPy.

around Christmas, assuming that all the various regulatory thugs
get their properly stuffed brown envelopes from Nokia on time.
No sooner than that unless you live in Finland.

now that meego is running on the Nexus S, I imagine it could be made to run on the htc desire z, so that would be the next best thing to a Nokia N9?

T3 is a leading gadget magazine here in the UK. According to the latest edition (Dec 2010) the N9 will be launched i the first quarter of 2011 with the meego os.
T3 claims that Nokia are hoping the new os will erase all those bad memories we long time Nokia users had with symbian.
So can we expect the N9 before April? My personal prediction is no. I don't think Elop will risk his reputation. He'll want absolute surity that meego can be a real threat to the other operating systems out there before launching it on the world.
Nokia cannot afford to launch another os that fails to take on Android and Apple head to head, regardless of how good the hardware is.
Just my personal assessment.
Cheers

Unless something has changed, the N9 will not run MeeGo OS.It will be running what would have been Maemo6 OS (Harmattan) but with a MeeGo compatible layer.

Point is, Python's supreme.
