I actually can see the benefit of MeeGo on TV:s. I’ve tested MythTV and it not so much for me. I currently use Ubuntu on my TV (6 y old P4 connected to). With a trackball keyboard it has become my primary PC despite I have a newer Quardcore at my desktop. It is great to have it all in one place sitting comfortably in my leather TV armchair. Yes, I would love to see a MeeGo distro on my PCTV!

How can you say that WP7 is struggeling when it comes to apps? They have close to 12k apps now, and they reached the 10k milestone faster then both the Iphone and Android marketplaces did.
