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

Jolla isn't Nokia Plan B - that's just plain rubbish.

On the other hand I think Jolla people have strong unofficial backing inside of Nokia by 'old guard' and probably some retired ones.

Re: The EPIC N9 anticipation thread

OK. I am from Poland and will operate in PLN when not annotated otherwise.

Starting price for SGS2 was 2300. I can get it now for 1750 (6 weeks after premiere in Poland). I expect in September it...

I have mixed feelings...

UI is AWESOME. I like it very much.
But hardware is so, so. By the time when it will be available worldwide I will be able to get SGS2 30% less than starting price and...

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: Nokia N9 Teaser - is this meego or harmattan?

Only to bash it for:
- contrast in direct sunlight
- subpixels
- not supporting AdobeRGB
- doesn't bring world peace

Re: N950 with MeeGo this year, but who trusts Nokia anymore?

I am using Mandrake/Mandriva for 10 years and don't remember any problems with dependencies. Note: that means that I really don't remember. Maybe there were some but minor and unimportant.

Re: Let's talk Nokia stock!

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

And pre-market on NYSE is similar.

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.

Think. Where there were some true Nokians here they said...

Re: Alien Dalvik, run android apps on non android phones (Like N900)

Hah, and there is genius in it :)

Porting Qt to WP7 or Android gives Nokia nothing. Zero. Null.

But making Android apps running on Symbian and MeeGo is big coup for Nokia. Why? Because best way...

Re: Nokia CEO Elop lays groundwork for new strategy to be announced next month, a move away from meego?

Re: Nokia CEO Elop lays groundwork for new strategy to be announced next month, a move away from meego?

Well, what about simple solution?

This big "new strategy" may be just official presentation of MeeGo.

- "Create" new OS - MeeGo
- "Catalyse" Qt layer
- "Join" - Intel cooperation

All bases...

Re: NOKIA is still strong

Strong is exaggeration but it isn't doing bad. I think in next two weeks all reports for whole 2010 will be in and it will be possible to compare with other companies.

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

I will stay with Nokia - definitely. But Symbian begins to look really attractive.

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

Re: N9 scrapped according to Eldar.

Re: Eldar and others: Nokia and Microsoft Discussing WP7

I think rumor about WP7 on Nokias is pure BS. But I can imagine MS went to Nokia for help to design handset for MS or maybe even produce reference model as part of some deal - MSOffice on Qt?
