Re: Nokia - Microsoft partnership (merged threads)
Just a quick aside as someone who used to work in Nokia. The reason Nokia failed to produce compelling products: arrogance, laziness by the symbian developer teams, piss poor control of user testing...

Re: What Nokia should have done with maemo/meego
Nokia had another project program after the N900 called columbus. From my understanding it was the next generation for maemo, however they canned it suggesting that they wanted to focus on the N900;...

Re: NOKIA is still strong

Re: N9 scrapped according to Eldar.
Another rumour was that N9 (***i) was canned because it was very late - a possible reason it was so late was that it was rumoured that something in the graphics subsystem was completely respec'd...

Re: N9 scrapped according to Eldar.
Heard that the N9 had been canned unofficially earlier this week. Aparently it'll exist as an internal dev platform. News from inside nokia is strangely silent on this, I get the general feeling that...

Re: Symbian boss quited
I was walking along a canal once and I saw a dead fish on the path. Its guts had been pecked out. I think the parallels with symbian are uncanny.
That is all.

Read the article. Have to agree with it 100%.
I kept banging on about how they should have spun out development to ninja teams who have a blank canvas and are free to do whatever they want. I...

Re: Nokia CEO Resigns
Gerbick - OPK didn't have anything to do with the linux open source work - that was all OPK's predecessor Jorma Ollila. I suspect OPK had very little to do with Meego (the partnership with intel).

Re: Bullish analysts: N8 will save Nokia
The N8 will be another mass seller. But it won't save Nokia. Nokia's software creation process isn't about striving for the best like Apple, it always defaults to "good enough". Coupled with the fact...

Re: N900 - GSM/UMTS gives up
The H3G network is a real mess. They have a fair 3g coverage map but the problem is that every voice call or data unit that occurs on the 'borrowed' 2g network costs 3. They get no money and its...
