question is, will Meego on n900 run apps like picodrive,snes, facebrick, fmms etc? or will they have to be remade in Qt?

You should ask the same question in 6-12 months
As you can see a few days ago we are able to seen some picture and specification of MeeGo os which will be on handheld probably in June, and when we can install on our device...

Yes, too early to decide either way.

If Meego is better some day for my uses, I swich to it. If not, I probably boot time to time either one from the boot menu to test where Meego is going. If most of the programs now available in extras and testing are not somehow able to be ported to Meego, I probably won't like Meego very much.

I am sure they can be run on MeeGo, but those apps might need some tweaks here and there to make them work.. one of them would be the packaging (from deb to rpm)..

That appears to sum up the overall sentiment. But I would add "avoids or reduces confusion".

(poll needs an "either one" option)

Harmattan/MeeGo still uses deb, right?

definately not MeeGo 1.0 lol.. why? Version 1.0 is also the buggiest point of OS. I'll take my bet on it. Version 1.1 is the safest bet.

Its not 100% but its possible. I think we all agree that not too many people gonna spend 500+ on a phone so if they release budget Maemo it might help to make it more popular
