I hope they will release the n9 with real Meego underneath. I'm not really interested in buying another device with no real upgrade path for the OS.
I don't think Meego-Harmattan would be upgradable to Meego. Let's say version 1.3 at least....

all this discussion about meego reminds me.
I guess we all who like openess with n900 will be dissapointed when actually nokia release a meego based phone.
I dont think it will be open geektoy like n900 is. some examples:
* meegokernel has no native support for mount linux nfs (network sharing).
* I dont think we can "root" the phone as easy as in the case of n900
* meego has more stricly policys what should be included in meego than maemo did. this is sometimes good sometimes bad. bad when we have to compile wifi broadcom drivers ourself in netbook edition as an example. instead of just enable some external nonoss repository.
* another example: I guess we have to tweek alot more to get mplayer and all codecs working in meego. in maemo we just do apt-get install mplayer codecs or similar. will nokia allow us to use external repositorys for this? can we be sure about that now when Jaaksi most open minded leader at nokia has leaved the ship.
By this I dont say meego/qt is closed but we cant be sure enduser hw based on meego is that open as the case of maemo.
so stick with n900 and wait and see. there will come more fun too our beloved n900 before Nokia release anything at all.

good points but imho E-series is strictly for business and I think Nokia has been quite clear about this. Consumers who are comparing different series and thinking what should they buy have not really thought what they really want.

who is talking about E-series? There is no word about E-series devices in my post
It was about delay of MeeGo.
I think everybody knows that E-(enterprise) devices are for business usage and not multimedia like N-Series.

2. The E7 is delayed. It is expected to hit the stores in 2 or 3 weeks. Do you really think Nokia would announce the N9 in Q1 to hurt the sales of E7? Why should i buy an E7 if a more advanced similar form factor device is around the corner?
