Evertyhing on conversations.nokia.com is just PR, nothing to rely on. As we've seen last week...

Underneath all the MS and Elop hating sentiments (which is understanding), I don't see much introspective thoughts at all.
After 4+ years of maemo development and 'only' arriving at a commercially unsuccessful n900; only to be sent off to an arranged marriage with Intel. Don't you think there has been something missing all along in the roadmap and how it's been executed?

Even if they release a phone late 2011(which is very likley) This product will lack support far worse than the n900. even do I really want a meego phone I will not buy it. Nokia must relase at least two meego phones and prove they really want meego in their protfolio before i even consider buy from nokia again.
And im sure it won't happen.
By shutting down Symbian and MeeGo for phones, focusing on MS WP Elop will focus Nokia and save cost, cost, cost by letting everyone go who's not needed in the new scenario. The layoffs will be absolutely massive.

On the topic of MeeGo, the Nokia people at http://conversations.nokia.com were posting this -
looks like another step 4 of 5
we expect to deliver a MeeGo-related device later this year but that device is best defined as an ‘opportunity to learn’.

You cannot trust Nokia anymore. Another company should buy nokia's meego division. Meego is still an attractive brand/product for a newcomer in the mobile market.
Or an established mobile phone manufacturer from the east..
Hope this happens.

I'm pretty sure there are some people working in Nokia, who don't give a damn about Microsoft and the new partnership. So hopefully this makes them to push even harder to really show what Nokia's MeeGo is all about.
and what engineer wouldt buy that??

Given the magnitude of the announcements on Friday, and the bluntness of them, the fact that Nokia are taking the time to state that Meego development would continue as an "experimentation" platform "exploring disruptive technologies", and that a Meego device would be launched later in 2011, is a small ray of hope, and a trip back to 770 & N800 days where the NITs were "skunkworks" R&D projects
We know previously that the next device was supposed be a maemo/meego hybrid to have the harmattan UI layer (whatever that is/was) on top of meego. and hopefully that a community port to he N900 would be made.
What we need and probably won't get until the launch is any details, and whether it can/will be backported to the N900.
If we get a new OS build and device, and the OS runs on the N900 well, and Nokia turn their Meego efforts towards experimental and innovative stuff similar to what Nokia Beta Labs has been doing (99.9% on symbian granted) then the future could actually be quite bright........
