It drives my cat absolutely mad. She is still scratching, and it has been 4 days...

Wonder if you (and others) saw the news report today:
Nokia Posts $1.36 Billion Loss as Sales Fall 20 Percent
Nokia’s quarterly loss was in contrast to a profit of $1.63 billion a year earlier.

Analysts said Nokia was being hurt by the slowing global economy, ferocious price competition and a weak portfolio of smartphones.

“Apple and R.I.M. are really starting to eat into Nokia’s lead in smartphones,” said Jan Dworsky, an analyst at Handelsbanken Capital Markets in Stockholm.
I don't think there's anyone who wouldn't welcome a larger discount, but clearly Nokia has to steer a middle route between assisting developers and spending money recklessly.

I'm thankful for the opportunities presented. I think we should all leave it at that.

For example the n900 was supposed to be sold for 500 euros in europe but it is only 650 according to nokia usa rather than the straight conversion which is 750$. I just want one single price so that i can decide whether to cancel my amazon pre-order...

I think that 300 Euros IS the single price, and straight conversion works fine. Taxes may throw a spanner into the waxworks, or however that saying goes.

No idea what you're talking about. I never made any such jokes, nor would I.

I've never much cared about what the chuntering masses think ;)

I take comfort in being smarter than 99% of the population.
