Ah, but there's the rub: if developers can't use it, they can't work on it (even
more of a problem with application developers).

And I'd say it isn't unfair to theorise that not all of them have the ability 
(or
desire) to buy new hardware to get a new OS working that doesn't (yet) have much
of an install base - and not much mindshare as a result.

At the end of the day: Do we want developers on MeeGo? Because if we do, we
need to minimise the barriers for them. That's the core issue here IMO.
