As I said over in the gPhone thread: It's too soon to bet the farm on Android by replacing Maemo. But, Nokia would be prudent to join the alliance, and then adopt parts of Android. A VERY good first step would be: port the android libraries over to maemo, add java, and whatever other infrastructure is necessary for running android apps on maemo. Then, no matter what applications get deployed for android, Nokia automatically benefits from it. (warning, pun follows) Then package it up, and call the package "Replicant" (an android emulator).
