Maemo 6 and/or MeeGo on N900: Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb
Since some people don’t follow talk.maemo.org, this is to let them know I wrote a quite interesting piece to help calm some of the worries people have been having about N900 future with Maemo6 and MeeGo based on my previous experiences both as community member and as maemo.org distmaster. You can read it at http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=45213 and it is very well received so far and covers four questions we should be asking instead of panicking. 2010-02-20 20:12 UTC with score 0

My friend Ilicco was kind enough to snap some photos of these sexy bits of machinery, as well as a video for your viewing pleasure. If you don’t watch another video all weekend, watch this one.
