flashed meego-codedrop-arm-n900-closed-201003311635.ubiimg and it turns out to be a 178mb xterminal :|
Correct, that's an -old- image from the end of March.

whatever happened to dos?
it fits in a floppy disk :|
DOS was also only fractionally as capable as that terminal only image. The console only image includes all of X and Qt 4.6.

I know it's hardly finished, but it's ugly as hell. Why does it have to look like an Android OS or Iphone OS clone? Maemo 5 was and is unique.. jeez.

I really don't like the UI it looks iPhoneish. I wish they picked something else for phones.

Well here's the awesome thing about the project:

It's open source, even more so than Maemo. So if you really, really don't like the UI then you can create your own.

eldar is saying the nokia interface is much better what he's seen on the N9.
so even if people dont like reference UI chances are you will like one of the vendor specific ones just buy what suites you

Well that's cool and all, but you do realize that not everyone has the skills and considering MeeGo is a mainstream OS, there shouldn't be a need to know how to do that stuff. I really don't understand what's so cool on the Android and IPhone UI that other developers and comapanies must copy it, it's lame, very lame and without any sense of originality. Until they come up with something nice (MeeGo tablet UI on a phone device), I'm not buying it.

The other thing is, as wmarone said above, if those vendors release their UI's - or other third parties develop their own UI's like wmarone suggested... those should also be packageable and installable on any MeeGo device you would think. So, even if you don't like the one the vendor gives you it's likely easily replaceable.

(How the whole dual mode/security posture will work into that I don't know..)

Kinda underwhelming compared to what's already out there, and it looks way too phone-oriented for my taste. Note also how they just retconned "MeeGo Handheld" into "MeeGo Handset" :-(

I'm guessing that's more of a question for here.
