to pursue your analogy...
the platform(s, i.e. Symbian and MeeGo) are still standing even though smoldering, but the "life boat" looks more like a rotten trunk in the Amazon then anything else (hint: don't tap it too hard, it might wake up alas only to eat you up ¦-)
(which would be a way of solving your problem, wouldn't it? maybe the intended purpose?)
