      ARM based & x86 based
      Nokia is the maintainer of the ARM based Meego
      Intel is the maintainer of the x86 based Meego

      So,
      Meego Tablet/phone from nokia is ARM based. just like in N900.
      Meego Netbook from Nokia might be x86 based.

          I tell you what's wrong with the Symbian^3 devices, and the last incarnation of S60v3FP2 devices.

          The one that's missing is ONLY the NMS. The Nokia Messaging Service... it's not completed yet as in N97/E72.

          Nokia plan the new devices to have all THREE part of the NMS... the email, the chatting, and the communities. and the software is still in nokia beta labs.

          So, you know when the new E5 or C6 or N8 went out. When nokia beta labs graduate the full apps of NMS.

                Anonymous, 26 Jun 2010Nokia why not just change the spec of n97 mini add 25... moreI actually have to agree with you, although I don't use Nokia but I was looking at mini the other day and it feels pretty nice in hand so yes if better spec this could be a winner. I am actually thinking to get its China-copy just to enjoy the look of it.

                  This is not going to be the N9. If you look in the corner of the third picture it clearly says C0. This is going to be a C series phone. It's a nice alternative, though, for those who do not want a touch only phone. Looks halfway decent.

                        It's not unusual for nokia (and other company) to change product designation before the launch time.

                        So, it could be N98 at the paper, then becoming N9 at prototype, but launched at E7.

                        So, until nokia give the right code other their RM something.... it could be anything from E7 or X7 or E8 or N9.

                            It's either n8-01 or e7' but since it says n0-00 in the symbian software pic, it leads towards n8-01, strange how though n8 inst out yet and n8-01 is leaked,plus this phone is 3.5 inch but wide like n900 screen not n97 narrower screen. I can't wait for n9 though, rumored to also have 4row qwert but 12mp dual led, fast CPU and ram and 4 inch screen but running meego of course.

                            Also from what I have understood when nokia said n8 is last symbian device, they meant all n8's which mean n8-00 to n8-09' or whichever how much they plan to make, will have symbian 3 and 4' and all n9 phones will have meego only. As for c7, e7 and x7 phones, they will have either symbian 1 aka symbian from n97'or symbian 3

                              there's also a probability that it will belong in e-series.

                                dis is probably n0t N9..N9 shud hav much juicier specs than its sibling: N8. So it shud run Meego OS. This might be a N7 or N6. but n0kia says that they will no longer make Nseries running symbian so there's a probability that it wud belong in C-series. But if you think about it, if its name is lower than N8, it can be an excuse to have it running on symbian platform..

                                        it is not N9. look closely at the front face of the device. it's clearly printed as C0. Maybe the next gen C series after C7?
