Pros and cons of MeeGo on Nokia... Pros: + Open. + More robust. + Size of Nokia (and Intel?) behind it. + Newer, less saturated platform. May be appealing to new developers. NOT a selling point to most users. + Qt and Symbian. Cons: - Competitors have significantly more userbase: aids in marketing, aftersales support, secondary market. - Competitors have significantly more developers: Continuous new content, quicker to package/channel new trends into their ecosystems. - Competitors have significantly more apps: More features and functionalities to cater to all sorts of niche userbases. - Competitors already have significantly more 3rd party accessories, services, tie-ins and whatnot. Without a very significant unique selling point, I'm afraid MeeGo may be too little too late.
