elop managed to kill all nokia markets. wp7 is failing.

if n9 doesnt pull, nokia will need to make android devices.
This article just highlights even more why Nokia SRSLY needs Alien Dalvik integrated.
And why they need to plug it heavily as a stand-out feature, however counter-intuitive that may seem initially.

Google will prolly eventually block folks from using their already purchased apps in Alien? (the license prolly already explicitly denies it)
But there might be a long enough window for a decent amount of adventurous android users to switch or become "bi".
And even if Google legally stops Nokia from using AD, the community will keep using it, & circumventing blocks it initiates.

But sadly Elop would've have killed any attempt at moving in that direction many moons ago.
WP7x's the new golden goose (supposedly) now...

Does anyone know if there's something out there that's similar to alien dalvik, but open?
If there's something like it, we could look at integrating it into meego-core/harmattan?
I guess the best place to start would be here http://code.google.com/p/dalvik/
