Both OS:es is using X11 and most of the Linux libs are the same as in Meego/Maemo.

I dont see any problems with community not supporting it. Problem is more like: when the hell Nokia will release it? or IF they even will release it?

I mean the FCC seems true but it could be some ****ing WP7 prototype too.
So in other words, it'll be a community effort for apps again?

They'll release it, and as has been said, i see little reason for WP7 requiring such hardware. Nokia has stated it will release a MeeGo device, this is no doubt it. Besides, i'm pretty sure that a WP7 device by Nokia will be called a 'W8' or something
