Developers who are interested in solely making money would have never been interested in Maemo simply because there's no way Nokia could've pushed enough Maemo devices out there to rival Android or the iPhone. Even if Maemo was a perfect copy of the iPhone (hardware and software wise).

The only way to attract developers is to:

a) provide the marketshare
b) provide easy tools to use to make said applications
