I've got to ask, how do you know how much the codebase for WP changed? we are not given that luxury like we are on Maemo. In fact WP shares a lot of bugs from WM so there was speculation that it was mostly WM 6.5 reskined. Ofcourse nobody can check this because it's not possible to do so. As for WP being "1.0" personally I would say it's still beta. The released Nokia WPs I've seen have had rather major bugs in them. Disappearing keyboards, phantom data, battery issues. Even with the Lumia 900, I saw a major connection bug. Releasing one phone, in one region, on one carrier with data connection issues, you would think that would have shown up in QA. |

Looks like a few more cogs have been turning than we may have though... Nokia to announce its first manufacturing plant in Vietnam
Meltemi plant maybe? |
Re: Nokia on the brink of failure
another sad story:
http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/...83B0X520120412 "At the moment it seems that the strategic decisions were not correct," said Timo Rothovius, Chairman of the Finnish Shareholders Union, which represents small-cap local investors who have increased their holdings during the freefall. "It might be that the Windows phones still take off, but at the moment it is hard to see any light at the end of the tunnel. Something radical has to be done. The company's credibility in the market is weak, and it suggests that maybe betting everything on one card wasn't a good thing," Rothovius said. |

Big losses followed by Moody's downgrade on Monday:
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/47073404...s-us_business/ If they can start a new dev infrastructure around Maemo, now's the time. If not, $hitty Android could get their mitts. Terrible planning, Elop has. Plan B needed asap for the good of Nokia. Need I remind everyone, Nokia's designs/hardware are still amazing. I would prefer that the company do well, so that Maemo has a chance to take off in the future, if not now. |

And dont come say WP is more ready than Harmattan is! If so why the **** doesnt Lumia 800 have NFC? Why doesnt they release a better camera? The list goes on. The only reason Lumia may sell better for the endusers is MARKETING! People doesnt even know that the HW in Lumia 800 is less good than N9 in many cases: camera, display and also the body. Still they buy Lumia instead. And way is that? I give you the answer: Simply because the salespeople say "oh you should go for Lumia its better blablabla". Second reason and the most stupid reason is: Nokia does not WANT to sell Nokia N9 :mad: :mad: :mad: |
