the sources are all in this very forum and in the wiki. search for it!
ifon: so what?
1. they're getting a dumbed down version..
2. are you comparing ifon os with maemo? they're getting features we had from the beginning, so what is the great thing about ifon os4? that they get finally fake multitasking (we had true multitasking from the beginning)? 4 weeks after steve the liar said, the users don't need multitasking.
think about it.
Also having a more fine-tuned grammar eases the job of reading each others comments.

If you don't like it, sell it and get something else. That's capitalism for you.
I'm more than happy with my N900, and find these forums a fantastic community of people getting the most out of the phones. Apart from the ones that winge and moan all the time.

We're really in the same boat here in Maemo.org. I don't think there's one single person who wouldn't like portrait mode, MMS, Flash 10.1, official MeeGo etc. here. There are a lot of people who, despite that, try and make the best of what they've got. And a lot of people who are trying to make things better for the rest. That's what this place is for.
This is why the general atmosphere really pains me. I'm not saying people aren't allowed to be disappointed but I'm saying they're pissing in their own cereal by making this place miserable for everyone else.

There will not be any official support for the N900 from Nokia. Is the community the one who will do the job Nokia should have done? Is the implementation going to be as good as a commercial one?
This will keep the jewel (N900 is a jewel) up and running, as long as there will be developers and people working on it.

It is much less expensive to leave the dirty job to the Open Source developers.... They work for free and you do not have to pay them salaries 
One thing is true... The only one to blame is the one who bought the N900 himself... 'cause he is the one that did it, not the people here ...

I want to explain why: I wrote on my N900 under time pressure. Also I'm not a native english speaker, so many of my mistakes I don't know better. Please feel free to correct me (then I'm learning) or point me to my mistakes. Thanks!
I've changed to a PC now.
Now to the sources: I said search for it, because they're easy to find.
There is a question and answer (Q&A) page at the wiki here: http://wiki.maemo.org/What_can_we_realistically_expect
It would be a really interesting lecture for you.
MeeGo coming for N900:
Version 1.0 (without UX/UI, it's coming in version 1.1 in some weeks) of the Linux Foundation's MeeGo is already out.
Source: http://meego.com/
You can choose between a 100% free and open source version, and a version containing proprietary parts from Nokia, for example the Battery Management Entity (BME).
MeeGo backport from Nokia's MeeGo (Previously known as maemo Harmattan, now as MeeGo Harmattan) is coming at the end of the year, after Nokia's MeeGo was released.
Source: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=53551 Read post 7 and 19.
The aim is to build a fully functional, compatible MeeGo version for the N900, containing all Nokia software (Ovi Store and Maps for example).
It has great support from Nokia but it is not "an official MeeGo for N900" from Nokia.
I hope that clarifies a little bit.

@attek
In addition to zehjotkah's links, here are a couple of others about the work a paid professional team is doing with the Linux Foundation MeeGo proper on N900.
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=53571
http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900
Those two links are related.

Thank you for the reply, I wondered why it looked like a monkey throwing a keyboard around
I am greatful for the sources you offered. However where did you find the 2 future updates you told me?
Sorry for starting cranky threads. I am attending to a big test today...
PS. Using the N900 too, BTW
