N900 was a highly individual model. Whilst it has hardly contributed to Nokia's profits it has contributed to the development of Qt and Meego. It has been the last bastion for Nokia power users and geeks standing against the Android onslaught and I can see value in successive devices on a similar scale.
The problem is I don't even think Elop realises Harmattan is different from meego os itselfs as I sense he just sees anything which isn't WP7 as just being "wrong" somehow.

He starting to look to me like a football club manager brought in to turn a football club round but as the opposite effect and the club Board eventually get so fed up with the poor results he gets fired.

As far as Apps go if Alien Dalvik can use Android Apps on the N9 then surely there is not an issue with a lack of Apps market
