It kind of is. Not that WP would be hell for me (I do believe more competition than 2 dominating brands would be healthy), but in best case scenario Nokia rebounds and once healthy continues work/investment in maemo/meego/harmattan (not exactly heaven too, but would be happy with such development), worst: gets to bankrupt and puts all maemo-related IP on sale and the price is right for community purchase (ok, worst scenario is Google buying it all out to keep its 'open' OS dominant, they don't need competition and the 'do no evil' line is long gone if someone hadn't noticed)
EDIT: actually, second scenario could lead to FREEmantle and constant updates (kernel 3.x, glibc, libglib all in newest versions, you name it), so it seems worst scenario might actually be best scenario. :/
