> especially when you consider the fact that much of the software is native code, not hampered by the resource overhead of a managed code runtime. Really Ars? Really?

Is Android, with JIT-enabled Dalvik, significantly more "resource intensive" than comparable functionality on MeeGo? Perhaps I missed that article.
