Re: So, seems like Nokia still has some pull , MS mobile app increased 300% as per this

I don't know the future, you could be right, I just don't see the need for appstores on desktops.
Most software is like photoshop - used by professionals and have total control of the market....

Re: So, seems like Nokia still has some pull , MS mobile app increased 300% as per this

I don't get your comment about advretising not for me, if you mean that I'm not influenced by it, then that is true. It is however very effective on the average consumer, you can't sell without it....

Re: So, seems like Nokia still has some pull , MS mobile app increased 300% as per this

My point is that once phones become as good as desktops they will be used like desktops are - no app stores, no special content for mobiles etc.
About a decade ago I had some phone, moto c350. It...

Re: So, seems like Nokia still has some pull , MS mobile app increased 300% as per this

Thanks, I speak hebrew. Two people are smart enough and know enough hebrew to put it on the N900: matan and MAG. Now where would I be without those two ? what if they hadn't got this phone ? how...

I guess my lack of native english is showing, when I say marketing I meant advertising.

As for you question, like I said, if it's good enough, nothing need to be sold around it.

Re: So, seems like Nokia still has some pull , MS mobile app increased 300% as per this

Not exactly,
There was nothing to market, the N900 is more of a devkit and not suited for the masses.
Texrat said "high return rate", no wonder.
So it was lack of marketing and a complicated...

Re: So, seems like Nokia still has some pull , MS mobile app increased 300% as per this

Was it even marketed at all, in mass media ?
But why would you market it, it is so consumer unfriendly with its geeky way of going about things that you will drive your customers crazy.

Re: So, seems like Nokia still has some pull , MS mobile app increased 300% as per this

There are many reasons why the N900 didn't sell as well as phone_name[1], ovi support isn't a major one.
Marketing is far more important than specs/support/ecosystem. You're not selling sewage pumps...

Re: So, seems like Nokia still has some pull , MS mobile app increased 300% as per this

Well I would rather have a good phone that doesn't need all those apps or can use the so many existing applications out there.
But app stores make money. They also give you something to do when you...

What we are not going to agree on, is what consumer friendly means. You say an ecosystem is required to make that happen. I respectfully...

Re: So, seems like Nokia still has some pull , MS mobile app increased 300% as per this

Linux, to me, means the same as a linux desktop only in your phone. That would be the ideal and as close as I can get to that the better. Like I said in a previous post, on my desktop I have puppy...

A cooking app would complement a fart app quite nicely. Such beautiful synergy within the ecosystem.

Ecosystem is a way to market a lame product as I explained on a previous post.
What ecosystem do you use for your desktop ?
