almost, but not quite, entirely unlike Meego

A more subtle Adams reference than one usually finds, and thus restful; thank you.

a total of zero devices ever shipped with Meego

Tiny nitpick: I presume you're saying the N9 doesn't count. Why?

I'm sorry to step in, but formally N9 does not have MeeGo OS on-board. What it has is called MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan and that is much closer to Maemo 6, rather then MeeGo.

I would say it is maemo6 :)

The N9 was based on the Meego core framework but I don't think it met the Meego Compliance spec. On the other hand, I may still have been too harsh there - Meego still seems to exist in the IVI market, so it may well end up shipping there if it hasn't already.

Ah, got it. Thanks to you, bros, & p2mate for clarifying.
