Also are the big companies like EA.. etc..will develop for Intel's MeeGo or Nokia's? And will there be an x86 vs ARM apps from those companies?? jw..

I think you guys are misunderstanding what Intel showed today. While the OS is MeeGo, the UI is from Moblin. The phone UI is Moblin for Phones. It won't look like that when productized. This is what Intel has done so far with Moblin. The MeeGo Netbook UI/UX will stem from Intel's work on the Moblin UI, and will be led by Intel in its development. The MeeGo Handheld UI will stem from Nokia's work with Maemo, and will be led by Nokia. So the mobile UI will be more similar to what Nokia envisioned.

What I wonder is how much will MeeGo allow manufacturers and carriers to create custom UIs like Sense or TouchFlo? Will there be multiple netbook and mobile UIs created with the same framework, or will there just be slight customizations?

Can anyone confirm or deny my inferences?
