Why develop specifically for MeeGo? And if no one's developing specifically for MeeGo, consumers will want to know why they should by a MeeGo phone instead of Android. As Harry Truman said, "When a Republican runs against a Republican, the Republican wins every time." Or as Michael Kinsley wrote "The slogan 'I'm just like the other guy, except a little bit different' is hardly inspiring."
And lastly, why should Nokia pay all the R&D costs to build and maintain MeeGo, pay to install Alien Dalvik, and let Google make money from the app store sales that they'll then channel into competing with you? Why not just put Android on for nothing and save all the R&D costs and licensing fees?
First question: same reason: porting Unix apps is more easy and flexible way.
Second question: because we do not need yet another Android phone, just labeled "Nokia". I won't buy it.
