Nokia hires hungarians for Maemo development?

I just found a [job offer|http://www.hup.hu/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&p=94752] on Hungary’s largest Unix/FOSS related portal called [HUP|http://www.hup.hu/]:
@@Cégem januári kezdéssel finnországi munkára programozókat keres.%%%
@@Elvárások:%%%
@@Debian, GTK+, glib, C ismeretek%%%
@@angol nyelvtudás, lelkiismeretes, gyors tanuló%%%
@@Open-source projectben szerzett tapasztalat előny!%%%
@@Debian alapú mobileszközre kell fejleszteni egy nagynevű mobiltelefongyártó cégnél.%%%
@@Érdekes munka, versenyképes fizetés!%%%

Translated to english:
@@My company is seeking programmers for working in Finland starting in January.%%%
@@Requirements: Debian, GTK+, glib, C knowledge, English speaking, working with heart and learning smart%%%
@@Open source experience is a plus!%%%
@@Work must be done on a Debian-based mobile device for a big mobile phone company.%%%
@@Interesting work, great salary!%%%

So, Hildon is GTK based, [Maemo|http://www.maemo.org/] is Debian based and Nokia is a mobile phone company based in Finland. Any more questions? Yes, it may be [Movial|http://www.movial.fi/], which is a finnish company doing [Scratchbox|http://www.scratchbox.org/] and has possibly other relations to Maemo/Nokia.

I think they have a success with the [Nokia 770|http://www.nokia.com/770] and the Maemo platform.

Update: look at these two job offerings at Movial: [Open Source Developer|http://www.movial.fi/en/company/Careers/opensource.html] and [Linux Application Framework Developer (GTK+)|http://www.movial.fi/en/company/Careers/linuxGTK.html].
