According to http://lists.meego.com/pipermail/mee...ch/481793.html Hämäläinen Kimmo from Nokia specifically says that they are developing a "phone". This may be a slip, but this seems to be the first time someone has said "phone" rather than "device". Of course, this is not an official announcement.

I don't know about 1 and 4, but 2 is a near on certainty for the rootfs size. I'd expect Nokia to include a tad more actual RAM as well.
Number 3 is unrelated to MeeGo or the N950. Talk to the devs of that system sir :-)
Nokia can get Dalvik VM to Meego-phone from Myriad.

Well with the dramas coming from Nokia recently, I've totally lost trsut of Nokia and plan to get the iPhone5. N950 could have the hw I like but I don't see it getting any commercial app. Simply put, I don't want to get burned twice even though I (mostly) enjoy the N900 and the community supporting it...
I don't think N950 will sell as "well" as N900, which is really a shame...

If Nokia would bring out one meego device every year, like the N950 this year, another one for 2012 etc., I'd actually buy the N950. Unfortunately won't happen.

Will the iPhone5 have an FM transmitter? If it does, will it have the range that the N900 is capable of?
Will the iPhone5 have an application that allows one to edit ODF and Microsoft formats?
Will the iPhone5 have a music player that supports ogg files and is as good as Some player?
Will the iPhone5 have an offline GPS that continues to work even when I am out of my carrier's data range?
Will the iPhone5 have multitasking as good as Maemo/Meego?
With the iPhone5 will I be able to use mass storage mode on any computer regardless of operating system and regardless of what programs are already installed on it to transfer media files?
Will the iPhone5 have a removable battery?
Will I be able to purchase an unlocked iPhone5? At what cost?
Just a few questions off the top of my head. I may have more latter.

2 x iP4 phones and N900 guess i'll be buying iP5 and iPad2 this year.
Even though a hater of apple products earlier and never bought any apple device before setp 2010, I can't support nokia for what they did to the users of N900.
It's been a year now since i bought N900 @ almost $600 in jAn 2010 and had fun till nokia totally dropped the ball on it and community s/w coudn't keep up with enough support in terms of app which were rising exponentialy on android and iOS.
My N900 o/cd 1Ghz, with 8GB mmc having Nitrodroid with no issues, sadly is only being used in toilet for wonderful speakers it has to play mp3s. Still strange enough, even though iP4 has better music capabilities and tons of software to exploit it but speakers suck when playing mp3s. Only good for headphones.

if you're over maemo/meego go to that other thread and discuss how much the n900 failed and how happy you are with android.
If you would like to discuss the n950, it should probably be in this one.
