With good tools it's nowhere near that difficult.


Android has a problem in that it was never designed for tablets, and is being migrated that way.
I'm not talking about the differences between phones and netbooks though, but between different phone UI's. It has to be made clear wether an application is designed for the user's particular instance of meego for handsets to avoid disappointment. That is quite possible of course, but also runs the risk of increased fragmentation.

This could only be avoided, if all implementors of a neego handset UX would stick to the same UI paradigms, which seems unlikely at this point.
