Be a bit worried that once you learn all about Meego you could be 
orphaned: Meego is in turmoil.  Nokia is the big champion of Meego and 
they themselves don't know if they like it.  They recently chose to use 
Microsoft's new phone OS.  It sounds like Meego is a research project 
that they have allowed to continue and allowed to plan to produce one 
phone.  Who knows if they let it get that far, and who knows what 
happens after that.

I think Meego is open source and others can continue to develop and use 
it even if Nokia drops it.  But orphans are sometimes allowed roam to 
streets, too.
