MeeGo must go down the drain. Symbian will never be developed fast enough for high end devices to compete with twin core 1.5 GHz android slabs, WP will. Therefore a change of direction is needed, and has been effectuated.

What we have is:
WP + Nokia = cool ecosystem, cool devices, cool OS for high end, future proof.
Symbian + Nokia = cool OS subcontracted to accenture, cool devices. Uncertain future, but as long as there is demand and WP isn't pushed down to lower end...
Harmattan = question mark, but will provide synergy with Symbian.
S40 = Future proof, cheap devices, web apps, next billion and so on.

My point is this: WP is high end and it will take several years before WP is pushed down to mid end (as stated by Elop). Therefore, nothing is better for Nokia right now, than Symbian doing well. I'm happy, my E6 is happy.
