Yeah, with an application manager that has something like the weave
plugin for firefox: Simply take the list of installed apps and ensure
that another device running MeeGo - regardless of its architecture -
installs the same set of apps.
Basically this is a one line shell command, but there's the need for a
nice GUI nowadays. ;)
Sync this data along with everything else, e.g. configuration of
widgets, and the user experience on all devices is the same, wether
it's a handset, or netbook.
