Corporate developers don't like working for free and I don't either. Please don't encourage the stealing of their paychecks and the integrity of the Maemo platform. With that kind of talk, Rovio i just to take their business to another platform.

Haha. I'm trying to buy the Angry Birds level pack and Ovi is saying that the address I'm entering for my credit card isn't correct. It has red boxes around the state field and zip code field. The state field and zip code field clearly say to use the 2-digit state abbreviation and 5-digit zip. That's exactly what I'm using. I'm pretty sure neither of those have changed.

Weird?

Fair point - but I must also point that that Maemo is a dead end as Meego is taking over, whereas Andriod has CONTINUITY.

So our positions are different - users of andriod phones can be assured of future apps, whereas if apps are not there now for Maemo, well I doubt developers will rushing to develop for such a small userbase now for money (how many software houses want to make stuff Maemo compatible ? many dont even KNOW about maemo when I ask) - seems the wiser course is to wait till Meego comes before committing.

Yes I know all about QT "compatibility", but until Meego is finalised, would a dev use it, knowing that Meego is a WIP that may not get traction ?

Just doesnt make sense from a $$$ perspective.

It remains to see if Symbian^3 will gain traction.

Nokia has been pushing qt heavily. There must be a reason

it dont need much traction nokia alone sell over 80 million units running on symbian a year.
also s60v3 and s60v5 support Qt too, that means 100's of millions of devices potentially with Qt support already out there

So this doesn't apply to N900?
