There has to be a two-tier approach as MeeGo/Maemo (or any superphone oriented OS) would really be painful on today's low-to-mid smartphone hardware - remember, it's not just about superphones, especially with Nokia BTW did you just list S60 as a dumphone OS ? That is in fact what will slowly get phased out in favor of Symbian^3, later ^4. As for the N8... There was no point in delaying it to 2011, as even today, it's below N900 specs (multimedia section notwithstanding).

They investigated the code in the phone and said ‘We can’t find the piece of code that could shift it up 5mm.’ They said, ‘There’s 20 million lines of code in the phone – it’s impossible.’”
how about commenting your code, nokia?
thats what i was told in school when i was 16 or 17 and we learned java.
