If I am not mistaken, this is not exactly true. Maemo (as such) is free enough, some of the apps and drivers that Nokia ships with its tablets are not. A competitor interested in building a Maemo device should be able to adapt Maemo to its hardware and build replacements for the non-free apps. I wonder why this hasn't happened, yet.
