Exactly! AFAIU it won't be easy (or possible) to have a common store for all different phones out-there. So, assuming that there will be multiple stores, a developer will have to upload his software to different "stores". But then again, that's not practical.

Let me rephrase the whole question: Can you (or anyone else) describe how the whole MeeGo app thing will work? I suppose that if the first device will be introduced in a couple of days, this should be already considered and decided by Nokia/MeeGo people (since they don't seem to discuss policy matters with the community).

Also, I'm not claiming that a VM (or Java) is the only solution for this. In fact I dislike Java. I'm just saying that at this point, after considering all the above, I finally understand why Google went with Java for Android.
