That would have required a larger investment than was put into the project initially.

I think that what the majority of end users (be you dev or not) are wanting from Nokia is something similar from the MeeGo devs...

This is extremely helpful and generally makes us aware of what is to come.
If Nokia could do this, then, I am sure, we would all be a lot more happier and accepting and understanding of where this journey is going.

Yeah, but objectively: more effort should have been put into crafting an actual ecosystem. That would have required a larger investment than was put into the project initially.
The whole Step X of 4 or Step X of 5 or whatever is a great idea... but you can't all of a sudden at step 3 or 4 just decide you want to completely redo everything.
The N900 actually became Step 1 of 2.. and all of the previous steps were dropped off into a black hole.

Wish I could say more, but I still hold out hope of SOMEday being rehired.

I imagine when Meego gets here they will be saying "give us a break, this is our first cooperative venture with Intel and you are upset that things don't work perfectly??" In other words, everything anyone does is the first time for that actual action; it isn't really that good of an excuse.
But i'm happy with the N900, it doesn't need an excuse as far as I'm concerned.

But I do know that N800 demand caught some by surprise. It's apparent polish worked against it... as weird as that is to say.
