You're talking just about the UI, Maemo is (headed to be) much more than just a finger friendly skin on a stripped down Debian. For example, the connection handling, location based services, integrated contact services, battery life considerations, syncing and the general on-the-move approach of 3G+ netbooks is much closer to where Maemo is headed than what you get with a desktop distro. Whether Nokia eventually wants to make that base also available with a netbook or mediapad oriented UI, just slap Moblin on it, or simply continue recommending Windows, is a different matter. _______________________________________________ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
