According to an interview over at the Wall Street Journal with Anssi Vanjoki, head of Nokia’s Mobile Solutions unit, Nokia is very interested in being Linux based, but without any little green Androids. Nokia’s focus for their mobile devices will be primarily on their most popular platform, Symbian, along with their Linux-based “MeeGo”, which they created with the help of Intel.

While Nokia continues to release their devices and push ahead in the global scheme, Anssi promises that they have not forgotten about the US market, and asks stateside users to hold tight for future releases, such as the T-Mobile 5230 Neuron.

The first MeeGo devices are expected hit hit the market by the end of 2010. You can read the full interview between Anssi Vanjoki and the Wall Street Journal  here.
