Advertisements The final and closing chapter to the Meltemi story. Thanks to our anon source for this piece and also bugging as after many missed emails. ___________________ After previous parts it would be best to explain how the Meltemi UI looked like. On devices there were no buttons in front, only volume and lock buttons (like […]

Over at TMO, member. ‘DirkDagger’ Â shares what appears to be one of many unreleased prototype devices from Nokia. Â This one is the Meltemi device we previously mentioned called Clipper (or Clips, Â confirmed by our source). We are told that this is a mix of polycarbonate and steel. This version of the software may […]
Here’s part 2 of the Mythbusting Meltemi series. If you missed it, here was Part 1. – Just some clarification from the last post. In 2010 the Nokia strategy was to use QML (very high level Qt framework) for 3rd party apps. That would have solved the fragmentation issue Nokia had as they were either […]
Ali, Michael and I have had the pleasure of discussing Nokia’s Meltemi plans with a once Nokia employee on the Meltemi team. They’ve shared a wealth of information with us which we’ll be publishing over a series of posts so the amount of text won’t be too overwhelming. Thank you very much again for taking […]

We all wish Meltemi had seen the light of day, or at least leaked images and info right? Well last night I received the latter, from a reliable source of mine, about Meltemi, the other Linux-based OS killed by Nokia’s reshuffling. So here’s what I’ve been told. Meltemi was less than 2 months from launching […]
SlashGear reports that before the unofficial Meltemi was axed, it was apparently almost ready. We sure love ‘almost ready’ OSes at Nokia. I think pretty much every phone we’ve had has an ‘almost ready’ OS. What is ‘almost’? http://www.slashgear.com/nokia-meltemi-survivors-suggest-axed-os-was-nearly-ready-21235076/ BTW, you may have discussed this topic before so let me remind you of your previous […]
