Well, we are in app-centric "age", now it's needed to have Android or iPhone, or Windows for x86 to have access to the world. It's really needed? I think that is not true. I am using Maemo and i think that this system and with few apps, i have everything that i need for everyday.
Why everybody says that Symbian is the worst system in the world? Because Symbian does not have 100 million of "fart" and jokes application?
Now, everybody knows that if do you are a DJ, you will need to use a software that don't runs in Linux and you will need to use Mac or Windows. In some cases, only Windows will run correctly your software.
If we know that the peoples communicates with applications not with systems, i think that multiplataform development kit can solve this problem that for me, was originated with a principle that "closed source" solutions are the unique option and this will be better for Microsoft and Apple that will ensure the survival of company for more 30 years.
About this subject, i cross my fingers and i believe that the main idea in project "Boot to Gecko" made by Mozilla (https://wiki.mozilla.org/B2G), will make the webapps a better viable solution for the app-centric "age".
Sorry for my bad english. I promise to everybody here in Maemo-Talk that I will get back to my English course

For me, a operating system is only a system that communicates the low level hardware with applications, and the peoples uses only applications, don't need what O.S peoples uses, we only uses aplications.

Qt was a good concept, QML sort of ruined it for me, the way Maemo 5 had Qt was the best way, have stock QWidgets themed with a theme engine so it looks similar to the OS.
Harmattan didn't implement this sadly, so QWidget based apps look/behave bad on it, so you're stuck with rewriting your Qt apps again for Harmattan.
Instead of writing a theme engine for Harmattan, Nokia embraced QML, which is not that mature imo. MTF is good but involves rewriting the app, and it's only compatible with MeeGo then. QML is good but you have to do everything from scratch (components are just examples prepared in a package in my opinion).
The new devices Lumia Nokia Phone with Windows system debuted in Brazil on Thursday (22) with a new partnership between Microsoft and the company: the first 200 customers who purchase the new 800 Lumia win an Xbox 360 with Kinect sensor. In all, 200 kits will be available "Xbox 360 + Kinect" divided among the 10 participating stores Nokia promotion. Therefore, only the first 20 who purchase the new device at each of these sites is to win the game and the motion sensor from Microsoft. Nokia's stores that will be promoting: Shopping Recife (PE); Shopping Flamboyant (GO); Courtyard Bethlehem (PA); Iguatemi (BA); Shopping Island (MA); Shopping Eldorado (SP); Shopping Barra (RJ), North Shopping (RJ); BH Shopping (MG) and Amazonas Shopping (PM). Lumia The Nokia 800 is Nokia's bet to play the market with equipment consolidated as the Galaxy S II and iPhone 4S. It will also help to enhance the entry of Microsoft and Windows Phone in Brazil. Lumia The screen 800 has a 3.7 "AMOLED ClearBlack, 8 megapixel camera, 16GB internal memory, Qualcomm MSM8255 processor 1.4 GHz system and Windows Phone Mango. Already the Lumia 710, which will be manufactured in Brazil, has more modest settings and comes as a smartphone with Windows Phone input. The device has a screen 3.7 "TFT ClearBlack, 5 megapixel camera with LED flash and internal memory of 8 GB.
Update on 21/03 at 14h44: Nokia sent a statement stating that due to logistical problems, the promotion that will give an Xbox for the first 800 buyers Lumia will be held on Saturday (24/03) only at the Nokia flagship stores in malls mentioned above.

Android seems to be the better option for most users, with the power and influence of Google, it's easy to build and to make this system popular. Now, i believe that everything that is happening about mobile world, seems to be "the greatest ad ever". Android is a good operating system but i think that Windows Phone 7, Android, iPhone, Meego can be a very good O.S to manage correctly the resources in my hardware.
For me, a operating system is only a system that communicates the low level hardware with applications, and the peoples uses only applications, don't need what O.S peoples uses, we only uses aplications.

I believe that we cant repeat past errors. The Windows for desktop is the most popular system ever. Who here don't uses Windows 7? Now, everybody knows that if do you are a DJ, you will need to use a software that don't runs in Linux and you will need to use Mac or Windows. In some cases, only Windows will run correctly your software.
