I don't understand why that's such a big deal. <i>all</i> hardware gets tossed aside eventually. Mobile just happens more often than others because the development space is so fast.<br><br>If you want something that you can keep around for a while, get a big desktop. That probably has the longest shelf-life. Still, the N900 will be more-or-less open and hackable hardware just like the N800, so continued development of other platforms will be based upon hobbyist interest, just like everything else.<br>

</div>Is support for the 900 being considered in the development of Mer?<br>
I did not see it mentioned anywhere.<br>
Nokia will eventually toss it aside as well, like the previous models,<br>
and Mer will be the only upgrade path available.<br>
