More, meaningful applications and perhaps a WRT and JRT that may also work.
I don't think anyone will complain about more memory provided the up the battery too to cover the energy penalty introduced.

I'm wondering with the minimum specs, does that rule out the N900? Considering the N900 has 256MB of physical RAM? It shouldn't right? JW..
The answer to the question was that the N900 will be fine. Of course the N900 hardware adaption team isn't actually targetting anything vaguely day-to-day useful (developers only), so it probably wont matter either way.

Oct 2011 Until a viable user friendly Meego?
Oct 2011 Android superfroYogingerBcandyCane
Oct 2011 iOS5 Apple JUiCE
Oct 2011 Win7 in 3D
I don't get it Nokia have you heard the expression behind the 8 ball?
Meego OS means nothing to me after seeing the time frames and "Meego on my N900" by then my phone will have probably suffered a fatal drop.
Getting Nokia to Listen: "Is like winking at a girl in the dark" POINTLESS!

Yeah, I don't understand why it is taking some much time to create an operating system! I would have done it in a month!

I'm waiting until April-ish next year before I make any judgements on Meego.
There still is a problem with basic hardware under Meego and the Developers are working really hard to get stuff working - (e.g. battery charging is still only possible via USB).
I'm hoping that Meego will be in a usable state on the n900 next year because it is the only "mobile" platform that aims to be a proper OS (e.g. proper multi-tasking).
Other manufacturers are more interested in dumbing-down the OS to reduce manufacturing costs, increase profits and exert more control over their devices.
It seems Meego is going in the opposite direction and actually innovating in the mobile market - you know making a computing device actually do more and not less..

Sadly, I think Geonxt could be right. By the time MeeGo is in a usable state (12 months time?) we will have all moved on - and not sure anyone around will want to spend the time needed to make it work well on N900. Oh well...

These timeframes seem long - starting to think best to forget about meego in near future, android/iOS/WM7 are far more relevant right now.
maemo/meego is an interesting open source exercise but not convinced it's going to mean much until mid-late 2012
?
