lol this thread is ridiculous.
In two years people in this has whined about n900 sucks cause there is no good facebook/twitter app. Now when it seems the new device has it people complain again because it is integrated.
LMAO
and about no hwkb. I did also want it but we have to get over it. Or wait to someone else make a meego dev with hwkb.
However I doubt we will see any...

No integrated twitter client to annoy me... though I could choose to install one if I wanted. If I wanted a facebook client, I could choose from several, etc....
Granted, this is not something mainstream would want. They're used to a monopolistic company that tells them what they need and should use.
The fact that Skype was integrated into the N900 didnt mean that I had to enable the skype account at all if I choose not to. Its all plugins based. So if you didnt use Skye it wouldnt show as an ption on the man communication panel.
Same goes with FB and Twitter integration I bet. If I dont use FB, i would not enable that option and hence nothing to bug you all the time. Make your choise. And THEN there may be other 3rd part apps (standalone) which you may choose to install. THAT is choise.
Nokia (Meego) isnt saying you HVE to use the integrated options.

Correct. Integrated doesn't mean forced. It should just mean that it's there if you want to use it. Isn't this what K123 basically is implying anyways? I doubt Nokia Harmattan device will be any different. I don't get how someone could complain about it being integrated here when N900 already is like that. =P

Where's the Quim's, the Peter@Maemo's... eh? Having the wonder-twins of leaked information neither confirm or deny 356+ pages of conversation and lack the ability to do so - NDA, they don't want to leak their source(s), can't take photos, can't measure the screens, can't do anything but hint, what not (keep it coming, it's all we got) - has honestly tempered my willingness to buy into the N9. I'm thinking about what services as well as integration will exist.
Just because Zeh and some others are hinting about the N9 and there are bloggers writing about the N9 or dismissing it in some way doesnt Mean Nokia's official guys will hop on over and either give credence and shoot out some specs at us or deny it categorically. Never happens that way in any company and ou know it.
The tempering of your willingness to buy a Nokia device has happened much before for other (valid) reasons and it has nothing to do with Nokia not coming out officially before it is announced to confirm r deny the rumours. Thats just sounded ridiculous. This thread is all amusement and you should take it as such. Trying to base your buying judgement based on this thread .... no way.

Quoted for emphasis - this thread is all bread and circuses lol - no way this thread has any useful info
in fact you should AVOID this thread if you intent to evaluate this device objectively for purchase when it is formally released.

It's asking for a suspension of disbelief on an order that I'm not accustomed to using with Linux based offerings that are typically more open than Apple's offerings.
Simply stated, open OS, open source developers, open communication. That's highly ideal - and never from Nokia - but yeah. That's what I'm dealing with in terms of what I should and shouldn't believe in.
And drop the Apple comparisons. Not applicable here.

Thus my prior statements stands.

Actually, I hope they are not wasting their precious times reading any of this! Go work, boys!!!
I hope they would have told us already if the announcement wasn't really close...
