Being a MeeGo developer's phone means that the Nokia N950 will not be as pretty nor as reliable as a commercial device, but it comes powered by a TI OMAP3630 chipset backed up by 1GB of RAM, and gets a 4" TFT LCD display boasting 854x480 resolution and an 8MP image sensory. Besides that, we cannot omit the fact that developers will have the N950's QWERTY keyboard at their disposal, which will hopefully make building MeeGo software somewhat easier of a task.
