The current Asha 311 and its interpretation of Swipe-UI is very disappointing. it has performance issues, low frame-rate, the small screen also doesn't help.

Let me be the first to say it, but people are going to be in for a shock when they see what Nokia has planned for the Asha line in future.
Let me tell you one thing, it won't be S40 and it won't be WP....

it would be cool to see that Nokia are not "all in" for WP.
after all, Swipe UI belongs to them and they should not let it die. Be that with S40, meego, meltemi, S^3, whatever.
swipe ui must survive. i wish they would incorporate it in future Symbian devices..
sigh

Other alternatives could be using Android, Firefox OS or WP7. But all those also have disadvantages. Android is "the enemy", Firefox OS has performance problems, and WP7 would create confusion with the WP8 line.
They need to get a competitive 100 euro smart-featurephone in the market, with hardware roughly similar to a Lumia 610 (maybe a slightly smaller screen). MeeGo Harmattan could work reasonably well on those specs.
I very much doubt Nokia will be developing a totally new OS, simply too expensive.
EDIT: or it could be based on the OS developed by smarterphone
