because Maemo is basically a "fart" from Nokia.

Devil's advocate here... it's a web page because I can use a web browser to get to it and it's embedded via SWFObject in a HTML or PHP page.

Sorry. I had to do it

So how you call my flaemo project then. I am looking for good name so you could help me out .

From your respond above yea... fact I am living in London doesn't mean my English is good, My apology for that, work in progress.

Anyway... it's clear for me that you didn't get it right. What I was saying is not Flash itself as a peace of technology. No mater plug-in or not, you like it or not. its a pure fact that is a massive computer geek market they are hungry to enter mobile world as well. Doesn't matter what is your personal opinion about flash. Or my own.

In short, 3 million people keep talking over the web every single day. Steve Jobs is a **** and Android is an option. Power of publicity. If people are talking about something you wont to know what is this hype about. This is what helped Android to grow in popularity. Even if by the end of the day nobody is even using flash.

Is it more clear now?

You answered your own question.

Carriers do not want open devices. It's hard to lock their customers with one.

No customer wants to buy dying products.


Nokia should offer new upgrades with surprising and revolutionary features if they want to show that there is still life.
... and they have a plan.

Battlestar Galactica
was the most suicidally depressing scifi every screened,
Nokia smartphone strategy seems like it was taken
straight from a cylon planbook.


Big noises with lots of shattered and abandoned product lines
drifting across the smoke-clogged skies of markets destroyed in treachery.
People trapped in hopeless places watching the inevitable
knowing that they were led into disaster by placing their
trust in those who had agendas very different than advertised.
Hauntingly scripted burials of still-viable equipment so like watching
living people being herded into airlocks to be artistically
flushed into the star-flecked beauty of a cruel vacuum.
Leaving behind at every turn someone cherished for their
competence or loyalty to face certain death as punishment for
a faith betrayed.
An impossible goal far beyond the boundaries of known space,
trying to find the lost myth of a product which needs no firmware support.

The only thing missing is a Bear McReary ringtone.

Whoever dreamed up this transition strategy from
Maemo to Meego should have their line Boxed.

Not popular for consumers or for device manufacturers?

Not popular for consumers because of:
Brand Association:
Maemo = Nokia, Linux (what's that?)
Android = HTC, Motorola, LG, Samsung, Google, Toshiba laptop!...

Not popular for device manufacturers because of:
Niche consumer market:
Maemo = Nokia, Linux (what's that?)
Android = HTC, Motorola, LG, Samsung, Google, Toshiba laptop!...

So, the next question should be; which influenced which?
