Hopefully this intra-MeeGo competition will lead to a better base platform and better end products.

It is clear that MeeGo vendors will understand that either this game works well or end user will jump to other platforms.
You may not know, or may not be allowed to comment on this. But what device-wide integration is planned in terms of application stores? I guess the closest comparison would be Android right now. If you buy an app in the Android App store on one device, and you switch to another device I think all the apps are transferred since they are tied to your Google username. Granted any company or user can start their own App store but few do since this type of functionality would be left out.

What happens in Meego? If a user buys apps, games, whatever on one device, will the user be able to transfer to another device (assuming QT compatibility)?
