iPhone OS, (OSX Mobile). Can you really take over the world with just one phone? I don't think so. I do not want to see everyone around me using the same phone. (two colors don't count as different, neither does the 3g vs. 3GS) I want a pink slider phone, that glows in the dark and can be worn as belly piercing on the weekend... (Ok I don't want that phone, but someone does...)

I've always liked Palm.
Truth is...I still use my old Palm Treo 650
(And Wow! hasn't MyTreo.net changed!)

In few years Maemo and Symban will be indistinguishable for 'common user' due to Qt layer and together will still be most popular platform in the world.
Iphone and Blackberry will be minor but significant platforms.
Palm's WebOS will be slowly fading away.
I am not sure about great destiny of Android. Big corporations (Nokia, Samsung, LG) won't like to put software into hands of third party after Apple proved how important that layer is (this is IMO also reason for demise of non-Nokia Symbian phones and why Maemo will not catch there). And this Big Three is about 70% of market or more.
Similar for WinMo.

Samsung won't let their "TouchWiz-based OS" go. They're currently working on a different path: to combine it with the Linux kernel. It sounds interesting, but it's the reality that's important, not how is sounds. According to Eldar we'll see the first devices using this "kind of OS" either late next year, or early 2011. As of now, they're only prototypes in their early stage.
