give me one good reason except the markethype?
Or in another world what apps does android have that maemo/meego is missing?

My dream would be:
You start NitDroid and go to the Android Market Place.
You install the applications you want.
Then you switch to maemo and start the same applications with the same libraries from maemo on the NitDroid partition.
You would have the full integration with maemo applications.

and btw. if there is apps in android that is more stable than maemo once, why not help fix maemoapps instead of saying to the deveelopers to feed google by porting dalvik/android to n900 instead?
thats only stupid imho. I prefer choices but that choices doesnt mean we all should feed google so maemo/meego community totals dies causee everybody wants reinvent everything from Android and in the end kill core maemo/meego apps.

I agree, this would be a very nice project.
We would all want top-tier support for applications on Maemo, but let's be realistic: it isn't going to happen. With MeeGo, maybe, but I have my doubts.
So this is yet another way to expand the platform and available apps for the user, and showing how it is flexible (and superior) to its alternatives.

My point is if your a developer and doent like maemo/meego sell your phone get an android instead.
if you miss maemo apps or thinks some maemo apps is buggy. well then read my above post again but I guess you stoped read after my first setence.

Having Dalvik VM on Linux give you the growing range of Android applications, without having to resign of the Qt/GTK environment you like and giving away your privacy to Google NWO.

I think this move could be a disincentive to develop for Maemo/Meego using Qt.
