Re: Nokia - Microsoft partnership (merged threads)

True only for part of people. Others like me just wonder about this deal that is quite bad and risky for Nokia.

I think it might be a normal thing if Nokia would offer WP7 phones as alternative...

Re: Nokia - Microsoft partnership (merged threads)

This doesn't matter really. Don't look at the lower end devices. Moore's law eats up low end devices with time. Nokia will need 1-2 years to get first WP7 phones. Unitl then, then-cheap SoC will be...

Re: Nokia - Microsoft partnership (merged threads)

Hmm ... first of all the Deal will reduce Nokia's sales of Symbian phones and make more difficult future sales of MeeGo phones or devices. The claims of Elop are very vague, based only on some...

Re: Nokia - Microsoft partnership (merged threads)

Well ... there were a number of Maemo devices (N770 ... N900) sold by Nokia - over the years, but without love and without being comitted to that OS.

And I remember, Nokia will deliver a Meego...

Re: Nokia - Microsoft partnership (merged threads)

Right, some people here are open SW enthusiasts, and also not friends of Microsoft. But I don't believe this hits the point. I also own a Window Mobile device that I also like. The MS deal itself, as...

Re: Nokia - Microsoft partnership (merged threads)

I don't think "open SW or not" has anything to do with the problems at Nokia. Nokia in the end sells phones. And missed the train called smartphone - even now there is no real smartphone that is...

Re: Nokia Plan B

Yes, but it would not have been better with WP7.
Nokia HARDWARE also doesn't really look competitive for Smartphones.
- Screens small
- Cameras not as good as Samsung (Smile / Face detection? /...

Re: Nokia - Microsoft partnership (merged threads)

Apple? Nokia joked about Apple iPhone a few years ago!
HTC? Samsung? LG? All of them were small in mobiles a few years ago. It's not only innovation, but you must -in particular in consumer...

Re: Botnet is attacking garage.maemo.org and others

It seems they are not really making a DDoS attack, but try to hack some sites ...

List includes a number of sites, maybe to hide which they are really trying to hack.

Re: On maemo5 development (out of concern for nokia!)

There are much mare apps available for Maemo.
Just look at M2, M3, M4 repositories as well.

The root of the problem is that Nokia really renders these works useless by fragmenting Maemo users and...

Re: Ovi Maps goes free for premium content (no N900 *yet*)

Then let's hope that n900 gets M5&M6.
And that it won't become "2 out of 4" :eek:

Re: Ovi Maps goes free for premium content (no N900 *yet*)

Nokia support response sounds different.

And in other interview it was mentioned not Maemo, but "next generation of ... Maemo devices ..." .... "might come"

Re: Indications on how well the N900 is selling

I don't like to further invest in SW (Navigation, ... ...) for a platform from which I know it has a limited future. Also, I don't see Symbian/N97 as a valid alternative compared with iPhone or...

Re: (Urgent!) Power jack loose, lost connection to power supply

The power jacs / micro usb seem to be SMD only (I remember a post some weeks ago! - someone has references?). This is inappropriate for parts on which forces (i.e. power jacks ...) are applied...
