I'm interested in some options regarding the SDK's. Pros and cons. Please don't add stuff like: "XXX is better becouse XXX sucks." if you can avoid it.

i'm thinking about starting development of an app for the N900 (that will be, until further notice, my primary device...)
considering it'll be in QT, it is but a stretch to go MeeGo / N9 / Sailfish
tizen?
what was that again?

o yeah, that bada replacement, right?
well, the simple fact that it is coming from Samsung and that Samsung is starting to get really pissed both at Android (and Worse Poop of course, but that....) both because of m@ke$$h!t means Samsung could be serious about tizen.
meaning tizen could be tomorrow's Symbian

wouldn't want to miss out on that now, would we?

Yes, they must be REALLY pissed about those $5 billion operating profit per quarter due to Android!

I would be looking for a replacement to that money making machine as well.

any idea how much m$'s Android profit is?
20$ per piece?
cost? 0

NOKIA was king of mobile phone as well and was still working on an alternative.
why wouldn't Samsung do that?

Sailfish SDK is better because Tizen sucks.

Just my opinion.

I don't see why you can't just install both SDKs? Is your goal to write apps for either Tizen or Sailfish? I installed the Sailfish SDK and I hope I can write a few simple apps before my device arrives. I am a novice but I feel the investment will be worthwhile for me.

technically it shouldn't be a problem to install both SDKs, indeed
however Tizen and Sailfish (respectively its base Mer) work with quite different APIs
Qt for Sailfish / Mer (Meego and, to some extend, Maemo) versus

A Tizen application is based on the standard web technology such as JavaScript, CSS, HTML5, and W3C widget packaging.
there even is QtWebKit (basically a web browser engine based on WebKit (as the built-in N900 browser i believe) thus it is possible to do web things w/ Qt as well
it is however much more difficult to do "local" things solely with web API
simply not the idea

a matter of preference for Maemo / MeeGo / Sailfish device owners because we have (more or less) full access to our devices

for any other mobile out there...
