N900 owners are a *resource* for Nokia's Meego effort that they are throwing away.
Nokia has *never* backported a new system to an older device, *never*.

You should merge this thread with Dave999's thread. It ran out of usefulness after the first couple of pages...

Nokia's only competitive advantage is now their historical lead on the mobile market share, but numbers are showing they are loosing that too. I think it is a shame... I had a lot of Nokia devices and regret every time I bought other brand, but I am disappointed with their positioning regarding Maemo and N900, it is just a lack of respect with loyal clients.

Well how can PR1.2 be late when the HK devices got PR1.2 already?
I'm getting slightly frustrated.
My initial estimate was around 20th of April
But now approach June and still nothing.

Opera will do portrait with keyboard though. There's no plans for Conversations, File Manager, etc.. although some people have gotten it to work by pressing a keyboard combination (I think it's either an easter egg or some testing thing left in by accident) in the leaked PR 1.2.

There's no portrait keyboard planned so while you can view say conversations in portrait mode (with the key press combo in leaked PR 1.2) you can't type anything without returning to landscape.
