That requires innovation on the silicon and battery front. You can get days on battery from the N900, only catch is that you can't use it at all, and that's pretty much true from any high-end device.

Possible? Yes. Useful? Debatable, since you won't have access to the Android Market.

NITroid, I guess, already has Dalvik-VM source code, so just porting that to run as a Meego process and emulate Android hardware under it.
Not that easy, not by a long shot.

Well, even lagging Java ME support in Meego is a mistake, I think, from Nokia, so they may not be interested to support Dalvik-programs either.
Dalvik != Java. And a vendor could always add Java to MeeGo.
