Is this just guessing (what we call pulling numbers out of a Stetson) or do you have some thought-out evidence for the ratings?
I am critizising mainly the value 0.9 you assign to Maemo (since I really don't know anything about the others, never used them)

Maemo devices are fairly easy to break into, so the value seems tad high to me.
