Personally, i hope someone else will pick up Meego as i'm done with Nokia, at least until their plans become more "permanent". With all this strategy switching they don't even have a working platform now, only WP7 somewhere in the future.

Bahh, who needs N950, I already have N95, it's just like N950 without the 0. And what is 0? 0 is nothing. so really I'm missing nothing. N95

How hackable are droids? Is it likely that MeeGo could eventually run on one of these?

I wish we could use all these great apps on other devices so that we are not limited to one manufacturer. To me that is doing things more in the spirit of linux. It is probably alot easier said than done.

It is is noticeably bigger than the N900 but interestingly the keyboard had a similar feel to N900 (at least to me). I thought the lip on the right hand side would make it feel odd but you don't notice it because it easily fits in the cup of your hand. Anyways, the real thing will show up next week. I will have a closer look then. The funny thing for me is that NOKIA did not have to hit a home run to get me to to buy a new phone from them. I just wanted them to provide something like the N900 with more ram, cpu speed and a bigger screen. The N950 would have been perfect. Now I wait to see if N9 with external keyboard will work or look elsewhere. Really disappointed about this situation.
