  • Go ahead and research something about S^3, S^4 and Qt. Things are going to improve for developers. In fact, by developing in Qt, you are developing for both Symbian and MeeGo at the same time.
  • Nokia grew marketshare last quarter, alongside with RIM and Android (Apple's remained flat).
Maybe you're right, but the point is: I've never seen any official announcement from Nokia stating this - which is the whole point. And in the meanwhile, the next high-end device is N8, which is a Symbian^3 device. There is no release date for the next Meego device (the rumored N9), and the way things are going, I wouldn't be surprised if it's not going to happen in 2010.
