Qole, you don't want to know how weird that sounded. In fact, I could have almost sworn you called someone a pregnant bear there

I believe it's starting to critically

a very good product announced - Nokia N900 - but it will not come quickly enough to the customer - because - Google shows Nokia how importance "time to markets" and "price leadership" is

see - „Google Android 2.0“ & „Google Maps Navigation“ & "Google Music" - http://www.google.com/landing/music/ - and the new "Motorola DROID" - http://www.engadget.com/photos/motor...irst-hands-on/

I wonder if Nokia is timing the release appropriately. Think about it; if they released the n900 when they were suppose to, the hype over the Droid could have overpowered the promotion for the n900 resulting in Nokia taking a serious hit in potential target markets. By waiting a few more weeks, it gives Nokia some more time to work on the product and allows for the hype and excitement about Droid to fall back to earth. If I had to make the call, I would rather make the people who preordered (like me) a little pissed than to release at the wrong time and get run over by the hype of a competing product.
