[maemo-developers] Wetab Android stack on Maemo/MeeGo

[From: Frank Banul]

Reminds me of OS/2 and Windows. In that case, there was little incentive to
write for OS/2 natively, instead developers took the lowest
common denominator to achieve the largest market share for the least effort.
Not a bash on Android, it has it's advantages.
