Android
1(desktop) + 1(apps) + 0(multitasking) + 1(resent apps) + 1(surprise apps we find in task killer)
= 3.. no .. 4... i am Dyslexic to count

N9
1(app) + 1(multitasking) + 1(live update)
= 3 Layer Os

N900
1(Desktop) + 1(Multitasking) + 1(Apps)
= 3 Layer Os

N900(can be)
1(Multitasking) + 1(Apps) + 0(desktop)
= 2 Layers Os
Why would you want to s**t on something that works?
Maemo has layers as the concept of the UI - the reason you press on the blurred area is to go to a lower layer.

It tries to approximate a multi-windowed desktop OS on a phone. This is how you do it.

If you only want 2 layers, install Nemo.
