Well firstly Tizen can have native apps.
Nope.. You're wrong. The EFL libraries and Qt have been ripped out. So it's all about HTML5.

I do agree with you on it not working on Symbian though. Possible, maybe but ****ing hard.
No, impossible natively. Possible in the cloud.

And for your last comment in the resources it uses, take a look at wine. Completely different program I know, but it did it. Almost no lag.
Not only a completely different program. But completely different architecture. You're comparing x86 with ARM. And wine is just the windows APIs and Libs and it IS rewritten unlike the ACL crap. Besides, most of the APIs and libs of wine are written in C (fast, solid, actual acces to hardware) unlike the Dalvik VM which the interpreter of might be written in C but most libs and the apis and other functions are Java (slow, heavy). Wine is fast because its running on a fast system (duuhhh) You expect to run a runtime environment on a completely different, much more limited platform (performance wise) without problems. It's not that simple.

Also Android is only a Vm on top of Linux anyway, that's why it can be ported and run in full speed.
Wrong, Android is the RE (Dalvik VM + Runtime Libraries) along with the Application libs and app framework on top of the Linux-KERNEL, not Linux.

And tell me for ****s sake, why am I still not able to run android apps on my X86 Slackware Linux machine without the help of emulating on
a Virtual Machine. Porting was that easy, right??
There is no one on x86 except bluestacks for mac and windows.

Mann.... Quit dreaming. Too good to be true.
