You think so? You've been here a while but maybe you missed some of the discussion in early 2009. Here's basically how everything went and is going:
  • Maemo 4: Stylus UI based on GTK with no graphic hardware acceleration support
  • Maemo 5: Finger friendly UI based on GTK with graphic hardware acceleration support and cell phone radio support
  • MeeGo (Harmattan/Maemo 6): Multi-touch UI based on Qt; eventually Symbian compatible at middleware and/or application level.
It's an evolution with clear purpose.
