It sucks for us, sure, but...

Maemo is lightweight, attractive and customizable, unbelievably functional.. Throwing it away just _makes no sense_.
We can always make our own. People are modifying hildon-home now on Maemo, no reason the existing MeeGo handset UI (or tablet UI) can't be made to work (better.) You won't see it on phones directly, but then I don't expect the existing Maemo community would stick with the defaults
