sometimes i've been thinking..
If only Elop did not declare Meego's officially "dead",how would this OS be today?
Perhaps it has already (at least) replacing symbian due to its flexibility and possibility and definitely put big challenges to android and ios when it grows enough..?

Imagine if they did it way before that; Today MeeGo will be very different.

The UI and animation is top notch, the live tiles is incredible you can see any notification and updates directly from the tiles and it is animated too. i love the group tiles, where you can see all updates incl facebook, twitter, linkedin from your group (family, officemate, etc) and you can make individual contact tile also, this is a very nice feature if you want to know all status/news/update from your favorite person such as ur gf/wife etc..

yes i know, i own htc desire too before. just live tiles is something special with animation out of the box and refined while android you have to download third party apps which is good for modders

ok ok cut the crap on comparing which is the best, it will never end lol. As long we love our n9 that just great.

btw i cant view some youtube video embed into a website, it only show a music note when in fullscreen, why eh?

Anyone encounter while N9 use as wifi router, but Motorola Xoom cannot find / connect to it. Computer, laptop or N8 can find / connect.
Wat is the problem?

sigh.. Let's just hope that Nokia either go back with Maemo and dun freaking ever say something bad of it anymore or windows phone Apollo that's truely Nokia (as what Elop promised..)
at least give me back sd slot,fm transmitter,mass transferring,turned-off-working-alarm-clock,bluetooth transfer,usb OTG and many more symbian and meego goodies

Well talk about treating every OEMs equally.. what about google and motorola acquisition?
Until now Android still selling like hot cakes though (cuz there's no OS to shift atm? )
We consumer..can only wait and see what these big companies wanna do :/

Now the question is, can Nokia catch up? They're emphasizing on WP7, and some on Symbian; For those who still like/prefer Symbian, may still support Symbian, especially for those who have invested on apps on Symbian OS. If future Symbian is no longer supported or when they want to switch, the question is, how should Nokia convince these people to switch over to WP7 (or WP8)? Why should they not go for Android instead? It's obvious which is the more popular and preferred OS right now, although we're not sure of the future, and for the apps they invested in Symbian, since it's under Nokia OVI account, can the similar apps which is available for WP available to them without re-purchase again (provided they're using Nokia phone and MS have worked something with their market for support of Nokia OVI account).

Finally, as of current, I think if the Symbian users were to choose to switch, I think many would choose to go for Android instead? I think Nokia need to seriously consider and take into account of this.

Not to mention that other brands are also offering  WP device and possibly much better specs, price and appealing design.

With only WP OS, what will be the unique selling point? And how to capture customer's attention, especially when most people are looking at Android. Moreover, most Nokia Customers are actually from their Symbian devices; they need to think carefully else they may loose their a lot of their customer. Even now, many already switch to Android or iOS. Can the Mango changes everything like the Apple?

video playback for certain codec (and profile) is not optimized just yet
you might have to wait

well, in addition to all the negatives already stated abt lumia 800, battery life also is a problem. Lots of complaints in nokia support forums.

me more glad n9 is released in Msia, the mat sallehs in US,Europe no choice, unless they import.

calmshot, they are sellilng the silicon case at the nokia dealers. Cyan is going for RM69. I read a few pages back there's promotion at KL side,RM59.

Hi guys, wanna ask if you all know/think about meego has any further plans to upgrade the OS? because based on the meego website, in their roadmaps, they only state up to meego 1.3 which should is scheduled to release on Oct '11. Is there a meego 1.4 in the pipeline?

sorry i'm really fresh at meego, am interested in the N9 phone and currently trying to understand more.

N9 is running different variant/version of MeeGo; N9 is running MeeGo Harmattan, which is sort of Maemo6 evolution to MeeGo. This variant/version is maintained by Nokia.

You can check out YouTube for the actual MeeGo UI, there're differences. The N900 is capable to run the actual MeeGo.

Thanks a lot for the answers guys.. i am not doubting the meego nor the phone.. i am slightly paranoid because I am currently using a phone whose OS (Symbian s60v5) had been discontinued (i think) and support for it is almost all-time low.. I bought this phone less than a year ago, and its price has taken a plummet to almost 50% of the price now (perhaps i had been ripped)..

those weren't the major issues, the major issues is the phone requires to be send back to the factory twice in less than a year (1 sent back, 1 scheduled to send back) with the touch screen issue and internal speaker issue. This 2 issues are consider major issues because it gives me alot of problem to actually use a phone as a phone (make phone calls or send sms)..

so i am currently looking for a new phone to save me from these miseries.. from what I read, N9 seems to be a pretty good phone? for now i don't have much question except for the OS updates that I was asking because I really not that familiar with meego. as a matter of fact, it's the 1st time I heard of it when i read about this phone.. (my apologies, i didn't research a lot on phone OS.. very out of date). will spend some time lurking in this thread to see more about this N9.

thanks a lot people!! truly appreciated it.

now what's left is to ask maxis:

"maxis, y u no have nokia data plan for N9?"

note: i did ask them, will they have it? and if they do, when?

for me, main disadvantage of n9 is no sd card slot,battery not user removable, cannot play rmvbvideo with stock player, not compatible with certain ebooks that i use. They support symbian but not meego. N9 has a ebook reader app that can read in epub format, so no prob for most commercial ebooks.
