You are perfectly free not to buy it.

Nokia is not saying that the operating system is "Free". Open source does not equal "Free", and open source does not also mean 100% open code.

If you are waiting for a device that will be "100% Free", and something that will be of relatively high quality, my humble prediction is that you will need to wait A Really Long Time Indeed.
