Not necessarily. You're thinking in terms of Nokia's past practices mostly on older devices. It remains to be seen just how all this will shake out with MeeGo. But with opening up Qt, Symbian and now MeeGo, they now seem to have a much more open attitude in general. And qgil has said (somewhere here, don't ask me to find the post) Nokia may be willing to open up drivers for their own hardware in MeeGo, but that some drivers belong to other manufacturers (TI, etc.) and it would be on them to follow suit.

Maybe I'm wrong...but I'd rather hope for the best than assume the worst.
