After the MeeGo announcement, I'm somewhat questioning the length of this device's life (which runs pure but rebranded Moblin 2.1). Of course, the same applies to the N900, but I still believe Nokia will give *some* more support than LG...

The thread "LG GW990 to have MeeGo OS" with six posts has been merged into this thread.

I'm leaving this thread in "General", at least for now, as Moblin MeeGo devices aren't competitors now. There's going to need to be some rethinking of the Hardware section of the forums, I think.

Oh yeah! With MeeGo this device looks very promising... I'm just hoping that Nokia would make a similar device with ARM before this comes out. Come on! Daddy needs a new tablet

It was just yesterday that we reported the arrival of "MeeGo" - the smartphone and tablet OS that has Nokia and Intel's backing. In an interesting twist to the story, LG has announced that it would be launching its GW990 - with the MeeGo loaded.

The GW990 was designed for Intel's Moorestown platform
and was slated to run Intel's own Moblin OS. However, Moblin and Nokia's Maemo have "united" to form the "MeeGo" and LG will ship the GW990 with MeeGo. With Nokia yet to announce any MeeGo based devices, it is easy to assume that the GW990 will indeed be the first device to use this OS.

The GW990 is expected to be released by the second half of this year and is likely to be available in Korea only - at least in the initial phase. It would be also interesting to see if Nokia too goes the MeeGo way and scraps Maemo in favour of the former.

A little frustrating to tell the truth.
But then again, we are still yet to know whats going on with Meego support for N900, I guess we'll find out sooner rather than later.

Maybe, finally, hardware made by a competent company, which won't leave old users back.
