I'm afraid that MeeGo UX will be too multitouch-oriented to be useful with resistive screen of N900. That's why we will not get the full official MeeGo for it. Other hardware is not a big problem, because Nokia usually releases a line of devices, so the new OS must be scalable enough to take the place of Symbian.

Eh? Bollocks. With oBS this isn't an issue.

I do stand corrected. However not having those aforesaid applications on the ARM reference device is still rather lacking thought and/or logic.
If it's the reference, then the apps should also be there.

Harmattan, originally slated to become Maemo 6, is now considered to be a MeeGo instance (though not a MeeGo product), and Nokia is giving up the Maemo branding for Harmattan and beyond (Maemo 5, aka Fremantle, and previous versions will still be referred to as Maemo).

With that said, I know that the Meego.com images will never have commercial applications. I was around during all of the Hacker Editions. No Flash, no... nothing. And they totally sucked.
And people are actually happy with nothing? I repeat; utter ******** and I'm not sold. You people may wander about with your justifications like it's the good thing that will happen, but each and every Hacker Edition, failed attempt to get the next iteration of the OS - which, this time there's no damn excuse because it's the so-called ARM reference device - and yet... not a damn thing has changed from before. A muddy upgrade path, no official anything and a community that I can barely depend upon to even clarify MeeGo versus Meego.com (images) versus MeeGo-Harmattan and any other iteration and/or idea you wish to place in there and I'm the one pointed out for being doubtful and wrong?

This applies for any kind of MeeGo.com-based products. When Nokia has a MeeGo.com-based product, you can talk to them about dumping in differentiation.

And don't get me started on the 'instance' stuff..

But even if we look beyond (provisionally named) MeeGo-Harmattan, one of the biggest confusors is leveraging MeeGo as a brand when in fact, that's just the basis of the end product being offered to users. It feels a bit like Ubuntu users being confused by new official Debian releases (make no mistake, Debian may be barebones in certain aspects, but it's no hobbyist OS - at least, though, Ubuntu and Debian are named differently).
