Maemo = Meego ?

Meego

Maemo merged with Intel's Moblin and became Meego.
And what you're seeing in the n9 is Meego.

More details on the N9, most probably from the Nokia Conference a few months back.

Pay close attention to the so called "Dali":

QUOTE
The latest I've heard:

- penta-band
- 12MP/Dual LED
- 64GB
- Capacitive touch

No confirmation on QWERTY. I would assume "no" because of capacitive touch screen.


In addition to above,

- RM-690 (I'm not 100% sure, but fairly certain it's 690)
- quad-band/penta-band (so it will support every 3G band under the sun like the N8)
- 720p HD recording
- 4" 16:9 capacitive multi-touch screen
- about 0.5-1.0 centimeters thinner than N900 (I forgot if he said 0.5 or 1.0, LOL)
- 13x0 mAh battery (I forget to check, but I suspect the display to be OLED and I was told battery life is expected to be better than N900)

Like I said, the specs are incomplete so there may be small changes/additions before launch.

Now, shockingly (or not shockingly) there will be another MeeGo device, known as "Lankku." I was not able to see specs, much less get much info on it.

Another shocker... one of these devices may be launched towards the end of this year and the other around 2Q-3Q 2011. I forget which one, but I'm pretty sure the goal is to launch Dali at the end of this year.
Interesting specs. Not OH WOW but really practical IMHO. Shame no details about the processor/RAM. If it's truly AMOLED, I'd say now we know where all the AMOLED panels went (Nokia bought them all and stocked up on them) that caused the shortage which prompted HTC to switch to SLCD.

From the Engadget leaks, I could see that the N9 mainboard looks somewhat similar to the N900's (from personal experience), so we can very well expect a 1gHz processor and above and AT LEAST 512MB RAM plus virtual memory - and everything else the N900 has. I'm hoping USB-OTG is here as well.

The early design is bleh, really, but so was the N8 when it was leaked. Hopefully the designers will do some revisions before we get to December.

BTW, Nokia is leaking like a sieve. Intentional like?

Those specs are really close , But we don't know for sure.
And from what i'm noticed , Nokia loves to leak pictures on the net while other phone makers don't. They just announce and release it on time.

Nokia leaks to compensate for delays lol. Not that I care much, I still like my mobiles to be workhorse-quality (read: campak dinding also will survive) and Nokia has never failed me yet on that respect (my 3530, N-Gage, 5800, N97 Mini and N900 was all bomb proof).

Also, the Engadget leak mentioned the product code to be RM-680. Dali was supposed to be RM-690 or something. Coincidence? Or maybe Dali IS RM690 and is the one due later and the supposed "Lankku" is the one leaking right now.

Or it's something entirely new.

Personally I wouldn't mind an 8MP camera really. But it's supposed to be a flagship, so it can't lose to the N8, at least in terms of megapixels (the N8 has Xenon flash and a bigger sensor to make it the imaging champ).

God, I need internal access to Nokia. Might hit some of my supposed internal moles soon, hoping he'd be cooperative enough to spill some beans lol.

And SOMEONE PLEASE do something about that huge amount of wasted space everywhere on the screen and on the keyboard, Nokia. Please.

this looks convincing... seems has the same OS as N8... no ?

N9 should be running MeeGo.
MeeGo going beta this October.So N9 OS still should be half baked.
This phone OS looks like Symbian^3.

Yes and no.
The main complain received from average user of Maemo 5 were Maemo is harder to use than other mobile os(Android & iOS).
So when Nokia & Intel merged Nokia decided to halt Maemo 6 development and revamp the OS as MeeGo.Most probably MeeGo will the strip down of some advanced functions that Maemo 5 had be a more mobile OS
There will be quite some difference between MeeGo and Maemo codes.Read about it at MeeGo wiki if anyone interested.

If Nokia indeed dump N8 like camera into N9 how high do you think the price will be?
When N8 pricing was 1st announced,it was 450+ euros.Now it's 550+ euros.

Semi-official leaked pre-prototype. And I HOPE it gets at least an 8MP cam lol, like super_evil_alien said, 12MPs on this thing might drive the price up to unbelievable levels.

But then there's still that "Dali" specs to think about hmm... hmm.gif
