Re: JollaMobile : Jolla continues Nokia's excellent work on #MeeGo based smartphones

Two phones in space of year from now is reasonable (not in *this* year as some people understood that interview).

First phone to push out quickly to gain some shelf-space, liquidity, PR, etc....

Re: The EPIC N9 anticipation thread

Quoted specification + Qt + low prices of hardware = Nokia really doesn't need Symbian

With this, Tomi's obsession "migration from dumbphones to smartphones" would be achieved in one big swoop....

Re: Nokia V Apple Patent Battle ends in Agreement,(NOKIA WINS)

I have to agree with Rauha. I am afraid that due to its tragic financial situation (thanks Elop!) Nokia agreed to anything just to fill coffers.

Re: Elops oh s**t moment for Meego

Re: Let's talk Nokia stock!

Auspicious beginning of new week on Nordic exchange. *Only* 4% down and still diving :>

Re: Goodbye Meego, goodbye Nokia

Nokia is doomed... And I don't say this because I hate MS (although it is true) but because it means slowing down development even more.

Comparisons involving Nokia and popular Android providers usually misses one point: *real* hardware producers.

Re: For your next smartphone, will you choose N9 or switch to an Android phone / iPhone ?

Edit: well, I was kinda naive - in this situation I think I will go Android
