That's why they're moving along to Android 3.0 (gingerbread) later this year.. and aiming it squarely at the new Android tablets. You know... the hardware manufacturers are scrambling to put out tablets. New stuff. GREAT stuff, in fact.

If that's not commitment, what the hell is Nokia doing to the N900 again? Maemo? Hell, what are we expecting out of MeeGo from Nokia (versus the PR about Symbian, for example).
