Except that you can't say anything like that, since you don't know who is going to adopt MeeGo and what the devices they'll put it on are like.

- Widely used Qt toolkit - wide developer base, cross platform ease
- Industry standard *nix technologies - specialists and support abound
- Easy update distribution - push fixes quickly and automatically
- Active user community -if- you don't lock the device down ("like a bunch of jerks" but you don't say that to them directly.)
Only after this does the pitch to the end-user come into play, and that's entirely on the hardware vendor.

My whole point of the example is how the marketing should be done; how to convert something simple as "it has an aluminium case" into something that sounds exciting and advanced. That's it.

Problem with Nokia is that they don't know how to produce a hype.

IMHO, the MeeGo phone needs to be the best Nokia has to offer. The camera should be equal or better than the n8. The interface should be better than the n900. It should be the nokia flagship. No excuses.

And I don't mean your love of ABBA either.

Nokia needs to consider to have their flagship device come preloaded with ABBA. All problems will be gone.
