The more I think about it the less it fits, actually. Either the Fremantle SDK is missing HUUUGE amount of components that are needed for a proper phone or... or... the phone functionality is done via virtualization. Sounds crazy enough ? Remember, we've seen VMWare virtualize full OSes on an N800 a few months back. I can fully imagine a Symbian/Maemo hybrid. Why settle for one OS when you can have more ? You get to keep Ovi store, Symbian PIM functionality and other goodies Nokia already has while leveraging Maemo's linux heritage at the same time. Now, that would be a quite a revolutionary approach, wouldn't it ?
