Nokia is certainly behind in the innovation sense lately.
Since you understand the technical aspects of the app manager, possibly you can offer an idea what "elegant mobile solution" might offer better speed without sacrificing the terrific power and flexibility the app manager now offers? I wouldn't want to sacrifice power for speed, no way.

Personally, I think MeeGo will be the most innovative and powerful mobile OS going forward. Like Maemo now, the only mobile OS designed from the start for real pocket computers. The innovation is there. The only question is whether or not it can grab enough mindshare in the public and press.
