Well, Ubuntu is comming up with a smartphone release either, and it might be ready even before Tizen is.
Since N9 MeeGo ist actually Maemo 6 and still uses deb-packaging (as does Ubuntu), staying with deb would probably be the better idea especially since Tizen apps would rely on html5 rather than beeing full featured Linux applications and would therefore rather not need a full Linux packaging and dependency resolution anyways.
Even if they WOULD be packaged in rpm they could still be easily installed on Debian/Maemo/Ubuntu systems using alien.
