Do you have any patience? Its clear from developers and professional companies that they are going to be investing in Maemo, Just give it time.
From what I remember, the original Maemo device was launched in 2005... soooooooo argument fail.

DarkPand0r,
When you enter late to market guess what? YOU DO NOT HAVE TIME!
Whole point of being first is that you have some time to make things better and only way others can enter to market is to make their system as least as good as competitor and FAST.

Apple (100,000) vs. Nokia (165)
You see what I mean ?
How many of those 100,000 apps have you installed?
And is it really 100,000 apps, or 165 apps done 606 times?
Numbers without context are noise.

I'm not saying Nokia is following a good plan, I could never defend them on that.
What I'm saying is that everyone is ranting about how Maemo is going to die in a sea of iPhone applications when realistically it does take time to get these things in motion.
Remember PS3? took time for them to build up a base of games too

I can't and don't buy the time explanation. Maemo got its start several years ago. There's been more time for it to mature than iPhone OS.
My argument is simply quality > quantity where apps are concerned.

Ill admit that having a 2005 start should have given them a massive jump but they have completely changed the OS several times, which has dented the amount of applications that would be available.
Maybe I'm wrong, my limited knowledge of the Maemo platform certainly supports it.

Why don't you count all of the debian apps that run just fine? Easy-deb is just a click away... and from there there are 20,000 unique packages to install!
