Here is what Elop said: "in the weeks following the announcement of Windows Phone 8 Lumia sales have been flat or up"
He did not say: "for several weeks already towards the end of Q2, Nokia's own Lumia sales had stopped growing". This is a typical Tomi distortion of the truth. Emphasising the negative only to continue with his token Elop is wrong rant.
I have given you references (it will not happen again). Stop acting like a child. Christ!
fwiw, I have just seen a local ad (from a huge national chain) asking for $0.0 on a 3yr contract for the Lumia 900 plus giving away a $100 gift card. regardless of brand, $0 for a smartphone is a nice deal - even more so, if the phone is a recent released one. however, it does not speak well on how popular(or the demand) for this phone is. as a comparison, the same ad ask for $99(w/ 3 yr contract) for the samsung note.
3 year contract!!! Three years!!! What bozo would do that, regardless of phone? Here I can get the SGS3 , iPhone 4s, Lumia 900 Whatever I want for $0.2 (20 cents) on 1 (one) year contract.
Use the product before criticizing it. Its way better in terms of general functionality than whatever Nokia had so far
I gotta disagree. And you know I have a Lumia 900.
It fits a certain type of user. Tinkerers, hackers, power users need not apply. My mother though, she's loving it. I liked it, but the moment I needed a more competent phone, I had to start back looking for a phone that offered me (free) tethering (a hack on the N9 gives me that, as it did on my Android phones) for my Nexus 7 tablet.
So saying it's the best user experience, you're not taking into consideration the collected group of folks here. Wrong audience for those kind of comments. Wrong audience for WP7.
I've reported you three times now; I hope something will finally stick. I've suspected since your first few posts that you are that permanently banned a*shole ericsson. But even if you're not, it's time for you to go.
Link me. I think that's what I'm saying and you're not getting.
Regardless. Nokia is at the mercy of Microsoft at this moment. Microsoft announced the WP8 upgrade path (read: none) and the Lumia sales dipped, dropped, and now the price is cut in half (at least in the US) on contract and they're losing even more money.
And you people that find this a "good thing" possess a vantage point that I'd never consider healthy for Nokia. They can't give away the Lumia 900 right now. Even non-savvy users know about the lack of upgrades.

This is a NOKIA stock thread. Products are selling to masses, of which tinkerers, hackers and power users are a 1% or less. Given the topic of the thread, my comments stand. Your mother is the 99 percent. Your mother loves Lumia. N9 or symbian would be painful for her. That is what it is about in this thread. Period!
