My pet theory is that SAP is helping block the merger due to Mysql MAXDB. Which I believe used to be Adibas from SAP. If Oracle get it hands on that they could hurt SAP revenues and grab SAP customers. I don't believe the EU will back down. I wonder it that could kill the merger?

In terms of hack-ability it seems like the ranking is Nokia Maemo(with slimmed down X.org), Pre (directfb - framebuffer driver), Android (java rendering), Apple (I don't know about Symbian). I have to hand it to Palm - their approach of porting webkit to run in directfb is a nice Idea. Personally I think the future of app development on these phones is simply to use HTML 5
