Haavard Nord (one of the Trollech founder) was an investor in this company ..

I just went through their site. I also saw something about J2me. But couldn't find more technical details like whether it uses a linux kernel or not. Whether it allows native c++ development etc. Meltemi, next billion and Qt, S40, J2me, smarter phone. A lot of uncertainties

I think Nokia just wants to secure their marketshare on simple phones...

They have joined LiMo Foundation. So, it must be Linux based.

Nokia have said that this is related to the Next billion. So we might see Qt on this soon. Wonder what is the future of j2me and S40. On forum Nokia, they are strongly promoting it. Leads me to believe that both will coexist.
