Very strange after their recent declaration that it was Windows Mobile all the way. I might try out the N9 as I liked Maemo a lot. I can't see it tempting me away from Android now though. That ship has sailed. Let's not forget that Nokia launched the N900 and we all got excited but then dumped it a month later in a hissy fit. I don't know if I'd ever trust them again.<br>
<br>Positive news for Meego fans though. Maybe it's not dead.

Looking at it, I quite like it.<br>
<br>
It is currently probably the closest to a true Linux smartphone one can buy from a big name (that excludes OpenMoko I'm afraid) - though by what I read, WebOS is a pretty close runner as well in terms of openness.<br>
<br>
I really hope it does well, in spite of everything that is going on inside Nokia and in the world mobile devices at the moment.<br>
