Keep knocking 'em down, then who will report about Nokia's products in the end?
At this rate, either they (Nokia) will have to start communicating more or risk nobody covering their products out of fear of even breaking an embargo by a few minutes or days.

Adding to the echochamber. Also, I am rather amazed that Nokia allowed him to keep doing this as long as they did.

I'm not convinced by all the brouhaha about competitors knowing your upcoming device specs and plans. Had the N900 been a completely open-source friendly device, NONE of that would have been relevant or mattered. The community would maintain it and advance it a LOT better than Nokia has managed.

Ok, first of all there is a lot more to the device than just the open source software/OS. What about all the hardware and RF antenae et.c.? Secondly, it was not just the N900 that he blew the whistle on- it was many products, most of them S60.
And don't say something like "well they could have used open-source hardware" - see OpenMoko for how well that works out. There is a place for IP, especially with the largest mobile device manufacturer in the world behind it.

Your missing the point here we are not talking about ppl breaking a embargo on legit devices few days early, its about stolen secret prototype hardware...

Sounds familiar. Perhaps it even explains a few things? Theft is theft, if he has received stolen property, then he should be prosecuted just like anybody else.
Mish.
