They have dropped MeeGo like a stone but the problem is the dreamers on this thread (not me) seem to think that they will support it and the N9.
Have you been dropped like a stone?

Nokia will release several updates. Is that so hard for you to understand?

They will support the N9, but it's still the last MeeGo phone from Nokia

Several is very indefinite.

It's more than two but not many more.

So far, we don't know:
- how many N9 will be produced.
- what will be the retail price.

And yet you claim will be supported with several updates. Is there any rational reason for such opinion?

N900 got several updates...other nokia phone have been updated several times. Android phones is updated several times, even apple update their phones several times. That is the reason. phones always receive several updates.

EDIT: plus if you read what Klas strom from nokia said. "...release several SW updates..."

Not all peoples act the same way when there face contradictory informations. But the point is not to react to the individual view in a such situation, because there will be very different behaviors. It's a fact on how the human brain work at the individual scale. Some will talk about official statement, some talk about current product release, some talk about there hope, etc... The point is to realize that there is currently different possible interpretation of the available informations. And this will continue this way until there will be a more coherent set of information, that will assert some previous info and withdraw some others previous info.

Very simply put, the problem is:
* Nokia officially say his future is WP only.
* Nokia officially release a brand new Meego N9.
* Lot of reactions external to Nokia acclaim the Meego N9 and challenge the WP only future decision.

Now there is two basic directions:
1) Continue WP only. Nokia value will fall because it kill it own Meego value (and actually the only one that is publicly acclaimed for that matter, as WP is just WP as already do Samsung or HTC).
2) Continue Meego. Nokia value will fall because of the hug loss in effort in a pointless WP development.

Clearly Nokia need something more subtle to expect a rise of his value. But what ? This is the question for me.

This quote from Elop himself should be proof enough:
"The N9 will be supported by Nokia in the years to come to ensure customers are well served."

For the price, it now available in Switzerland. Digitec is usually a very reliable retailer:
http://www.digitec.ch/?param=toppreise&wert=219890
http://www.digitec.ch/?param=toppreise&wert=219893
http://www.digitec.ch/?param=toppreise&wert=219892
http://www.digitec.ch/?param=toppreise&wert=219894

Actually:
Nokia N9-00 - 16GB - Black/Cyan/Magenta: CHF 649.-
Nokia N9-00 - 64GB - Black CHF 699.-

There expect the products for mid-September, but this information is usually not so reliable, and there clearly warn about this fact.

On the other side, Orange Switzerland web site announce the expected release for the 15 September:

(This link might not work. Go to Product->Nokia->3->N9)

Seem to be very fresh new statements ! :-)

My personal perception after reading Elop is that he cannot hide the Meego acclamation and have to find a way to make value from this, but still have to defend his decision about WP.

This statement sound very suspicious to me: "[...] the MeeGo effort could not quickly enough deliver us a range of solutions across price points, radio technologies, etc". Easy to say after having cut the Meego staff by a half !
