This article seems to miss the fact that Nokia are planning to continue with MeeGo development.

This comment seems to miss the fact that MeeGo development is probably doomed anyway.

The article treats MeeGo and Symbian synonymously, even though Nokia's announcement puts Symbian on a 2yr gang plank and says MeeGo is to be actively developed.

MeeGo development probably is doomed because Nokia is expected by its shareholders to cut R&D overheads, and the current plan doesn't look like doing that. I'm surprised that Nokia still is putting some of its weight behind it. The article seems oblivious to this point.
