Flop magic

No really, here in Europe NOKIA has been connected for years with good hardware, the best cameras (even when SE cameras where better NOKIA ones stood out because of better LCD's), feature-packed phones. It is very common for a guy to be treated as a victim fallen for the iphone marketing magic and having him to apologize and resorting to you know stockholm-syndrom-ish remarks. That is not the case in the states. It is really difficcult if not impossible to differentiate a NOKIA phone with a mainstream OS, being it android or WP. It would need something wow. And hardware wise it doesn't seem they have it right now.

At least the email will work well on WP7. All my pre-ELOP nokia flops had problems with work email.

N9 did manage to turn over their reputation.

The feedback was positive even from the largest of Nokia critics. That's what Nokia needed to get in the US and they obviously succeeded. All seem to see N9's success, except Elop and BigBadBugger.
