First let them do some profit on popular Android devices, than let them do whatever their fantasies go, including Maemo/Meego development :-P

Unless the N stands for Nostalgia, not sure this will go anywhere if these are not built to the same specs, fit and finish as before.

If they are smart they published an alternativ Meego/Sailfish FW and see how they are selling. The world doesnt wait for an another Android.
Maybe, if Trump made "America great again", Europe are looking for an Mobile with no American SW/HW.
That and only that can be the point to buy a Nokia again.

Some of us are dreaming about Meego resurrection, but it is unlikely it will happen. BTW - while I appreciate all hard work that was put in Sailfish creation I wonder why nobody hasn't tried to port to any device out there and further develop Meego? It has been available as free source code AFAIR? Or did it include some proprietary code that Nokia wouldn't want to disclose anyone?
