Me too, as long as they both have Qt for app development.

Probably, but then: why do they have no monopoly in the mobile sector already, like they do with desktops?

It's because their usual strategy, to copy the technology leader and to kill off the competition by a series of fouls has not worked yet.

But soon it will. They copied a minimalistic UI from Apple and nailed their system down like Apple. I'm sure they joined with Oracle to sue Google on Android, they use their patents to charge hardware manufacturers for every Android device. Then they destroy Nokia by planting a CEO that kills off MeeGo.

Playing a little unfair (not letting the market alone deceide) to win, but that's how it's done obviously.
