I think E3 would be more suited to Nokia's phone division.

I would like to see Nokia's Maemo effort concentrated on smaller, more
focused events. Embedded Linux conferences, location aware talks, mobile
browser discussions, Gnome/KDE gatherings e.t.c. This is where Maemo
will gets its more 'bang for buck'.

I think these larger events attract the wrong crowd in the terms of
community expansion and this is where Maemo has to grow substantially
before it can be seen at events such as E3 (IMHO).
