MeeGo a no-show at NokiaWorld, but CTO says it's "critically important

The reason why MeeGo didn't figure prominently in Nokia's announcements during the event, he explained, is because the company isn't ready to disclose specific MeeGo product plans yet. He says that Nokia is becoming more disciplined about how it presents its roadmap and articulates its product strategy. The company will only talk about products that are ready to ship, rather than products that are in the pipeline.
This was the first thing Vanjoki said when he got his position as head of Nokia's Mobile Solutions in January this year. Anybody who have followed Nokia in the past knows the pain of device getting announced 6 months before the release.

Maybe they announce it later so it will come to market faster from when its announced. I think I have heared something like that so I am not afraid that they will release it in 2011

Would Nokia dare to disappoint St. Nick?

This definitely used to kill me with high end Nokias... When the device was announced 6 months before you could buy it, it usually meant I would hesitate to buy what was available because the "next thing" was already hitting the rumor mill. Why buy now when you know there is a cooler one just around the corner?

the longer they wait, the more obsolete it will look when announced.

A9 + 128GB storage + 1280/720res

it should be a beast to rule H1 in 2011, but in my personal opinion it will be hardware found in devices that came out either during or before the summer. ie, before the iphone 4 ... i hope the "delack of announcement" was to upgrade the system board. TI is a HUGE sponsor of meego-fest 2010 i hope they arent showing up to just show off their old tech, esp when the new fabs are about to hit production. something fishy about reusing an A8, and the attention TI is giving this product release.

I'm sure that we won't see any meego device released this year. I think it won't be released neither in Q1 2011. the reason that make me believe this is today Handset Test Report on N900: http://wiki.meego.com/Quality/Handse...ptance20100921

Browsing website over 3G (WCDMA) - Not support in meego 1.1 release.

Not able to shut down the Device(N900) via power button - Temporary solution, should be handled somewhere else in stack for 1.2.

meego 1.2 is expected to be ready in April 2011.

What do you think . we will see a meego phone in Q1 2011 or it will be postponed until end of Q2 2011?

Its totally different to release some specs of hi-end device than manufacturing actually even one or more to show off without heavily bugs... story of nokia: Delays after delays.

They promise future device now, but when it's actually on market there are several equal or more powerful devices already.

These are current issues with 1.1 Meego on N900 device, nothing to do with the N9 current Meego status as It won't have this OS, but Meego-Harmattan, it has been commented a few times..

My bet anyhow is that it will indeed be postponed to Q2, but for other reasons than the OS

oh. so you say that the N9 will have the future version of maemo branded as meego? so it means that it will be debian based and not fedora?
