...if you believe this quote from Nokia Europe about the rumored N920 device:

There are at the moment no plans of shipping out another Linux-powered device. The reason is simple. We donīt even know how the Nokia N900 will turn out on the market. This picture is simply a demo proto for the N900, but we made a choice to make the N900 a slider with a full QWERTY-keyboard. Iīm sorry to tell you that this new device is a fake. The next generation of N900 will be N950 that will have a touch-only-interface with a 3.7 inch capacitive touchscreen. You all have a nice weekend now, and the N900 will start shipping real soon!
Take this quote with a grain of salt, because its source is unreliable.

This statement is a responce from Nokia Europe about the existance of the rumored Nokia N920 device.


For further clarifications, this responce was about denying the existance of a possible N920 (or any other Maemo device in the near future), rather than announcing another Maemo device.

Did you know about the N900 one year ago? The statement quite obviously indicates there won't be a N900 successor within half a year.

There is no "real" source (it's just a statement), that's why I didn't provide with a source at all.

By the way, I edited the opening post to indicate the unreliable source.

A quote implies you are quoting someone, who might that be?

That's the doubvios thing about this. It's a person who claims to work for Nokia Europe (with no kind of proof of that, though).
