I just bought one N9 and I think there are plenty of apps. If there are 5 000 or 500 000 isn't that important, 5 000 is plenty. Whats important is the quality.
Developers doing Symbian apps will also compile for MeeGo Harmattan. App count will grow fast

bump =-(

was planning on a 16gb as i know i don't listen to much music and doubt i'll convert videos to watch on the n9, but if this ever happens and i will need more space just to run ics, then it might push me to the white n9.

Both are dangerous because it will be easier to use an Android app than to create something specific for Harmattan.
We have the VAPORWARE "Alien Dalvik" you know, if this way is applicable then why the heck won't Myriad release that even though they've demoed it a year ago on an N900? There got to be a reason for this...
Waiting for a Dalvik runtime for Fremantle/Harmattan too, but I guess the compatibility won't be good. Also, isn't it great to use ICS on N9 and N900 to show that we're just NOT outta fashion?

people that don't work in Qt for Symbian.

And for what valid reason would they migrate from iOS/Android/WP7 to 2 dying platforms? Only because Trolltech released a bunch of API maps to do so?

p.s.: THIS IMAGE VERIFICATION AT EVERY POST IS ********

Heard that they wont do it, as they asked Nokia for a contract and Nokia denied their request. Since MAD is only for OEM, this makes sense that their objection means we wont be seeing it any time soon.

Well, I put my self in their situation and I thought that...
if Nokia denied the implementation of their MAD, in their shoes (Myriam Group shoes) I would have started to sell Myriam Alien Dalvik implementation directly to the end-users as an external application (like a GPS navigator for example) at a street-price (for example 30$) with updates and life-support building a version for every possible OS (like WebOS, Bada, Maemo, Symbian and Meego)..

It is possible to dev in Qt on Android now...
There's already at least one e.g. of an app designed in Qt for Android, that was then quickly made for Symbian/Maemo6x.
CBF'd digging it up....

But as to your point... Trolling much there aren't we?
A commercial pond is commercial pond.
Even if it's tiny that matters little...
In fact it can be an advantage, as one has a better chance of standing out.

Many small indies (& even large co's) will be and are, quite happy juggling 3, 4, or more platforms.
It depends on the org, how they're structured, & what they want/can do with their time/resources.
There's no rule that says it's infeasible for all to do that, & they must stick with the "alive" platforms.

Anyway this is totally off-topic, start a dedicated thread if you want.
