Actually, here in the US, the only reason why most people would laugh at the mention of "Maemo" and "MeeGo" is because, to someone who hasn't heard them used before--which is a majority of people here, they sound like baby-words and babble. Nokia hasn't been particularly brilliant at naming these OS's.

Android has instead of...

MicroB: Android browser, Firefox, Opera Mobile, Dolphin and more--all of which have the option to view either mobile or desktop versions of websites. It's GREAT having options, isn't it?

aircrack-ng: Nothin', as far as I can tell. You got me there! Sorry, you're going to have to hold off of cracking into wifi routers and go do something legal instead.

preenv: Android OS--you know, there are far more applications on a platform that is supported by hardware manufacturers and its own founders--unlike the WebOS platform emulation that you shoehorn with preenv. Still, if you REALLY want WebOS apps, you got me there, too!

nitdroid: A real and fully functional Android operating system, with working phone, camera and other hardware--because Android devices were made for Android to start with. nitdroid is a nice shoehorn, but it's not quite the same as a fully functioning OS.
