Re: [Work in progress] Milestones for porting Symbian

Why are you so eager to shoot him down? Let him try and learn on the process, chances are he will discover cool things on the way.

Re: So today I found out one reason why android sucks. :)

I think Maddox's point is how, suddenly, old technologies become "cool" once they get a "hip" name.

Ah, the vulgarization of the web...

Re: Nokia N9 with WindowsPhone Mango leaked- Full Video

That would also go great lengths to show how deep the grip MS has on Nokia. Samsung, HTC and others can release Android and WP7 Phones, but Nokia can't even be allowed to release the N9 before their...

So they made the WP7 keys into softkeys. Awesome Nokia differentiation! /s

Re: Elop on Helsingin Sanomat: N9 the last Meego phone even if it is succesfull.

I always said that Vanjoki should have been CEO, and some US guy (maybe even Elop) should have been his right hand, go-to man to get stuff done.

Re: Elop on Helsingin Sanomat: N9 the last Meego phone even if it is succesfull.

I wouldn't be so sure. From my experience working in and with US-based IT companies, they are pretty good at brainwashing people to be loyal to the brand forever. I have seen it time and time again.

Re: MeeGo 1.2 Developer Edition for N900

I am sorry, but I don't see fully how the transition from MeeGo to other platforms will work. It's not that my opinion carries much weight or anything, but I'm pretty sure (because I know them) that...

That is why you don't EoL something without having its sucessor ready and providing your customers a transition path.

Re: NOKIA Rejected Android in Favor of M$ - Eric Schmidt

Nope. They just took the core Windows CE, that is as old as Symbian, stripped a lot of features from WinMo 6.5, added a new UI and called it a day.

Mind you, I'm not saying it's something...

They are keeping MeeGo because a phone is on its way. They won't release a WP7 Nokia (argh) before the end of 2011. So MeeGo will be their claim to greatness until their... abomination... is ready....

Re: And where is the people from Nokia who worked on Maemo and Meego?

Maemo Harmattan was close to be finished but had rough edges.

Then it merged with Moblin to be MeeGo.

Which meant delays while the infrastructure was being integrated.
