Quick reply...
Thank you for the suggestion. But the platforms are - i n my opinion - quite different: Maemo's interface is GTK (and some Qt), Android is based on Java machine. Besides, Google would have liked to collect data from Maemo users then, like he already does from users of Android and Chrome web browser. Android already had a large market share on phone market, there is no reason for Google to sponsor another, competing platform.
Best wishes.
