      The software wont be available to customers....its for developers only...to easily port their apps onto meego.....

      so dont live with the high expectation that you can enjoy any android app on it....

      this was demonstrated in feb 2011 for maemo 5 but was never made available to end users to prevent piracy of apps...

      (i am speaking from proper knowledge..its only upto you to believe me...or wait and watch.)

              23ke, 23 Jun 2011RIP Android and iOS..I really have to laugh at some of the comments on here. Just because one app is developed that will allow one phone to run Android apps on it, now suddenly Android and IOS is doomed. LOL!!!! and ROFL and LMAO for good measure!

                        N9? Bought! Genious! Although, how the controlls will work I wonder, when you have no back-key etc.

                          AnonD-3601, 23 Jun 2011dual core is the only thing that android fanboys would say ... morenokia should release this in the north american region. if nokia does, i will definitely buy it as a replacement for my 5800 express music. this the nokia smartphone i have been waiting for with 1 ghz cpu.

                          also, in my opinion with bad reception or signal any type of processors will lag.
