By that I meant to the largest markets available from the carriers store on contract. E.g. Walk into a Vodaphone shop in the UK (for example, ideally the whole of europe) and get the phone on Vodaphone, or a AT&T store in the US.

If this same level of dev foundation building is being fostered by Nokia for Maemo 5, it is transparent to me. Nokia seems to be spread out with too many OS frameworks- (Maemo 5,6 and S60).
This is true. There really isn't a good framework and IDE integration available for Maemo. Windows users have to download a linux distro and run the emulator in a virtual machine.

Compare this to Android where you simply download Eclipse and the SDK installer does the rest. Nokia need to release a better set of tools for more apps developers to consider Maemo.
