So much nonsense.
The problem with nokia is not what it is now, but what it will be in two years.
Symbian IS outdated.
Neither MeeGo nor maemo is enough for all nokia phones.
Leaves us with android, with its massive manufacturer competition and WP7, that is a young OS still unfinished but adapted to the next 5 years or so. None of them are part of the Qt ecosystem anyway.

Even if it su*ks for the FOSS and NIT world and for me, this is good decision industry wise. It gives a viable strategy for nokia for the next years (again, nokia's problems are not with is current situation, you cannot just compare symbian and WP7 as they are now).

And non related, but as stated many time, MeeGo is all about "common core for easy maintenance and support" + "easy (mandatory) UI customization by vendor" so it is more than likely that you won't see the benefit of it by trying the reference image.
