Well, for the most part, they basically are, but S60 and Maemo fill two very different roles, so they can't be 100% similar without changing the way one or the other works (the RX-51 is going to be much better hardware than the N97, anyway).

That said, Nokia has recently hinted at having the choice between Linux and Symbian on their higher-end smartphones at some point in the future, so we'll see.
