there is another thing to consider:
I think it would be unwise to tie too much the kde-mobile projects to MeeGo.
Of course right now it's the platform where it makes more sense to develop 
with and it would be good to have a good level of integration, tht's sure.
However i think in the future there would be many targets as viable as MeeGo 
is today, where we could really shine
