Quim Gil: root access will be there: http://forum.meego.com/showpost.php?...&postcount=331

But on what machine(s)? And on what price (does it mean giving up Nokia Store, booting to different operating system...)?

To me the most interesting thing is how customisable the UI is. I can live with all kinds of UI paradigms as long as I can "make them my own".

sheesh I don't want to know what else **** they told me^^
good!

720p is too high to be useful on a tablet given the strain it will put on the GPU.

qHD at 960x540 would be perfect.

i care if that single core SoC is the Omap3 because it will come with the now thoroughly inadequate SGX530 gpu, made even more inadequate performance wise by the increase in screen resolution.

whats the difference between bash and busybox?

since the cpu is going to be arm does this mean that we can port applications from maemo fairly easily? for example install multiboot and put nitdroid? Or install generic meego onto the system? depending how much freedom where given. I also hope they release a GUI for the flasher program. But so fair this is all a pipe dream.

Or... Sealed battery = slimmer, more durable device without reducing battery size.

Apple sealed the battery on their MacBooks and about tripled the battery life. Whether that is a curse or a blessing is a matter of perspective, and clearly not as black and white as you say it is (personally, I got the last MacBook generation that still had the removable battery, but I'd rather have the longer battery life).

the way you continue to carry yourself, on this board will not lend itself to credibility.
Not bragging. Infact device goes back today (sad) but trying to justify my point. but your point is correct too. my fault.

Swipe left to open last app in, swipe right to open multitasking window?

Btw is the "multitasking window" we saw really about multitasking or is just bookmarks windows. Isn't he swiping from browser and opening bookmarks windows? Like it's working now.
This is my hope, no one needs to belive it and everything could change in the last seconds...

@zehjotkah: could you please provide us with new informations you will get at the conference...
