>That's not entirely true. The MeeGo org was a mess.

Obviously you have an inside perspective that I don't, but from the outside it just looked like y'all made an amazing phone. :) I can't say I heard much about internal issues, but I believe it given other things I've heard about Nokia internal management...

The phone was perhaps amazing, but Meego the project was all over the place. Sure, Intel and Nokia was supposed to cooperate. But just as Meego was announced, Intel had moved from Moblin v1 (deb) to Moblin v2 (rpm).

It was indeed amazing in the end. Still the best phone Nokia ever made. Which of course made it all the more tragic when it was killed for the disaster that was Windows Phone.
