Do we really need to carry this MeeGo/Harmattan FUD outside 
of the MeeGo community?  Yes, Harmattan is not a purist form 
of MeeGo... but the developer differences aren't all that 
great.

Yes, this is an excellent reason to not get an N9.  It is 
the reason why I will not be getting an N9.

It is not a reason to *NOT* develop for MeeGo.  Nokia 
doesn't own MeeGo and never has.  MeeGo is not dead, nor 
dying.

Yes, if you develop for MeeGo, you'll be an early adopter.  
If you're developing apps you should target the N9 and/or 
the AppUp (x86-based) stores.
