Never was I proud to have left Nokia for the Fruit Company. Never, that is, until now. Elop just sold Nokia's soul to the devil.

Oh well, as long as they give WP7 proper multitasking and not let it turn into a pretty but generally useless OS, it's not THAT bad.

I'll be watching today's Financial Briefing.If Elop confirmed that there will only be 1 MeeGo device out this year,I'll assume that eventually Nokia will phase out MeeGo.
I'm reaching the age where I'll be needing a proper reliable,full functioning phone with good OS.I can't keep hacking to use patched version of app in an unsupported device.

If I see any Android with physical QWERTY keyboard smartphone I might consider moving on.If Google adapt such device as developer device it's all better.
But of course I'll be keeping my N900 as plenty other Maemo enthusiast.

Whatever happens,I would like to thank the devs who took part with MeeGo development.

Primary OS will be WP7.MeeGo will be treated like Maemo.
I don't want that.Better be killed rather then treated like stepchild.

Again.

Nokia is either spiralling down to it's death, or they might just make it because of this. Though they're just another equipment manufacturer now. Which leaves Apple as the only software + hardware mobile maker now.

Which is really, really sad.

Ah..Come on...Don't rub salt on my wound by making me say that Apple is g**d.

Already my mood is ruined by this news.Downloaded gb's worth of series but yet to watch anything.

Don't forget RIM. They still make their own software and hardware. Blackberries seem very popular with youngsters these days.

Well,I'm young but not interested a wee bit.

Damn.. Guess i would use my N900 as a hacking device then.. Gonna get a new one maybe after 2 years?

bold move

Somehow...Rubbing salt to my wound by saying Apple is good does not effect me anymore...I wonder what TMO guys says about this...

From TMO:

Finally My n900 was saved..only spoilt is the camera Button-- cannot be pressed.

BTW i'm Having a problem booting into nitdroid once i followed the below code to enable nitdroid accelerometer. (previously able to boot it)

Therefore need some expert help, has i done something wrongly??

I didn't say Apple was good. I say they're the only ones left manufacturing their own hardware AND software. I discounted HP because they frigging bought and deleted Palm from the world. Google? The Nexuses were made by OTHER PEOPLE.

Oh, and I forgot about Blackberries - on purpose lol. They are popular because it's trendy and had BBM lol. Software and hardware is bloody archaic though, at least until the first QNX based phones come. But right now I can ONLY consider getting one because most of my BB toting friends gave up SMSing already (snobs).

I mean, push email? My old N-gage could do that. BBM? My N-gage had IM+ lol. And all this YEARS before the Blackberry was even commonplace over here.

So, no. Apple is NOT good. But THEY ARE the ONLY decent mass market, Complete Suite (software + hardware) mobile manufacturer left.

Which marks today as a sad sad day indeed.

Two turkeys do no not make an eagle.

This news is not so good.

I hope Nitroid project keep N900 alive with all the bug fixes then N900 is the device in legend.

Nokia no more release N900 and all in market is last year stock.

@Robertlee
-i got mine , avaxx . the date is january

Ps :
i would like to ask do i need to download kernel if i'm using android 2.3 ?

Its sad to see Nokia joining with microsoft. I was so looking forward for meego. I guess my nokia N900 will be kept as an antique

Haha...
Seems like discontinued MeeGo phone will be made into WP7.

Added on February 11, 2011, 9:43 pmI think MeeGo phone will be iPhone.1 phone per year.Looking at the Nokia's long term financial strategy,there will be some allocated budget for MeeGo for each year continuously.

I don't know how this phone will be sold.But it's increasing likely it'll be a testing phone just like N900.
I'm really hoping MeeGo device's sale will brake Nokia's expectation.I really want to say "IN YOUR FACE" at Elop's face.

Throwing away a nearly complete OS to another half baked OS.

Added on February 11, 2011, 9:51 pmMeeGo devs still enthusiastic with the project.Guess I'll wait for the MWC to see the progress.

Biggest winner tonight : Not Nokia or their investors.It's Microsoft.

Of course its like Micirsoft join with nokia and uses symbian of course beneficial. WP7 also kinda lack of alot of things as well atm.

The good part of Nokia using WP7 is we sure get hardware boost.

I don't like Bing,Zune & the Xbox service...Plus the service is rather limited in county outside US & Europe.

Heck in these past month I was considering moving from Windows 7 to Linux OS(Ubuntu + Fedora) in my desktop because of the some bloated part of windows.But now Nokia pushing another Windows product to me?

SIFU aspire,

pm me the photo session worr

oh man, why nokia why ???? ):
