With Symbian becoming POSIX-compatible (via PIPS) and offering standard libraries for C/C++ (via S60 OpenC/OpenC++) and Qt being available on both Symbian and Maemo, maybe we'll see some sort of cross-platform SDKs in the future?

Maybe an Internet Tablet running Symbian. That'd be neat. Isn't supposed to be Open Source by now, or soon?

I can't see that happening at all. These are supposed to be portable internet enabled devices, they will remain pocketably small (n810 or n800 size) I believe.

First of all, Maemo is not mentioned anywhere in that article. It is about Linux and open source software.
Second, there are quotes from a Nokia representative in there. They do not indicate what you say, nor do they indicate certainity.
The reporter writes: [...] could start to use open-source Linux software on its more expensive phone models. It doesn't say Linux kernel. It says Linux software. Resumee, it clearly says could. And last but not least, it is not a direct quote and therefore holds little value, if any. It might as well be the conclusion of the reporter based on what he observed.
What you state with as much certainity as it seems is simply not a given!

Quote in article from Ukko Lappalainen, vice president at Nokia's markets unit:
"I don't see anything in Android which would make it better than Linux maemo," Lappalainen said.
Notice he said Linux MAEMO
