.... why do you care ? why do these answers matter to you ?
Maemo has already been officially abandoned and has been for some time, so there has been no official Nokia support for some time.
As for community support, no one knows - why are you asking a question that cannot be answered ? As it has been pointed out repeatedly, you should only keep the N900 if you are happy with the state of it as it is NOW - community support is VOLUNTARY and can disappear overnight - there are no guarantees. Hell if Nokia pulls funding from TMO overnight (which it can), then your community support takes a big hit. No one here can guarantee community support.
As for N950, there are no "facts" about this device or even if it is a phone. What are you exactly asking here ?
Are you looking for some excuse to stay with Nokia or something ? No one here can give you definitive answers to your questions. Only pure speculation, hearsay and what their "gut" tells them.
If you need someone to reassure you that the maemo community will live on, my advice is to go find another community based on a system that is still officially alive, because Maemo is not going to offer you that assurance.

Can someone explain to me how people think this is trolling? That was one of the most calm and peaceful replies possible. govprog, don't worry, you're not trolling.
As for the answer, I have no clue how many users there are. More than all the active N900 users on here, for sure. *Shrug* And no, Nokia never released N900 sales numbers, so we don't know.

The replies to your OP seem a bit harsh as it is something I have wondered myself however it is impossible to answer unless every MT user answer your question?
I understand Nokia sold around 1m N900's and around 100K maybe using MT regularly? I suppose the downloads of the latest popular app on this website may give a clue to the number of active users?
It would be intertesting to know how many users have downloaded the CSSU?

Well,when the nokia had said that they are going to announce meego,I think most of us waited for it(at least I did) but after the nokia/microsoft partnership, I heard some news that the maemo users are preparing to switch to webOS by now. My question is:How many maemo users we (still) have. Do you think it's going to be abandoned or you think it has a bright future? It would be cool to have N950. But, do you think the rumors about the N950 are real and we should wait for it, or you think no such miracle will happen? Or maybe we should wait for another surprise from nokia?
