next... make the WP7.5 accepted in the market...

and next step.. get rid of the Nokia brand name..( actually no longer important.. it is not a Nokia anyway, anymore)...

in what Fu*king sense meego is not competitive???WP7 is doing better job?Elop.aiks.

There's one article posted, about Elop killing Maemo/MeeGo as it's a potential threat/competitor; It talks about how it kills off the entire project and not letting other company to buy/take over.

Meego is a threat? Hehehe... dont look too highly on Nokia la. If Meego is really as highly rated, they dont need to go and beg MS and Google lor.

If Maemo is highly successful, I will have my reservation. But for Meego, I think better put it to sleep la. Its way too late to the party.

As for Nokia WP7, lets wait and see what they could do with it. Its too early to tell.

they beg MS or google?lol..for meego,i'll tengok dulu...as this is first n last meego device from nokia.i wonder how is the ecosystem will be.although the other manufacturer join the party,LG,huawei n bla bla.
lol..i'll never ever use again.unless microsoft allow modification(UI) for wp7.

Bagero punya Nokia given chance to change UI but don't want to change

at least change on icon.icon on wp7 is reli ugly.use anna icon at least..

It's an article, truth or not, no idea:
http://www.mobile-review.com/articles/2011...ki-124-en.shtml

"What happened was: Stephen Elop deliberately shut down Maemo/Meego to eliminate a potential competitor of Apple and Microsoft. All Elop's actions show that he has prohibited such developments inside Nokia and has done everything to prevent anyone from acquiring it outside Nokia. I hate conspiracy theories but the facts I have speak for themselves – it is a destruction of a potential competitor to the existing operating systems."

Successful is depends on the public; MeeGo may do better; Maemo is actually very good and has lots of potential, but its still incomplete, just workable. The phone functions is very basic, many features still lacking, they have many good concepts, they integrated social networking into contact book which others hasn't done it before (well, as I know of - Which MS later announce WP7 which emphasizes on Social Networks), and there is potential to grow as it can easily be added more to it, so much more in the OS, plus the first to have full Flash support, porting many desktop apps over, like actual MSN for Linux, mplayer, codecs support, myPaint (desktop paint applications), Chrome browser, etc.

But, this may not suit the general public; especially when most people are into simplicity and branding; Plus many are influence by the iFruit. It sort of created a mindset that only need simple functions, there's no need to learn more complicated/advance features, making people reluctant to use a more complicated device. So when they use a more advance/complicated device which offers much more, they can't handle it and say it is not nice to use. Some, that explore and wants more may eventually move out and move on.

Anyway, all I can say is, there're many category of users, the best is IF the OS can be design to be simple and easy to use, AT THE SAME TIME, provide OPTIONS/CHOICE to the users.
Example:
1. Don't want/like Homescreen? Turn it off. (Or Default, turn off)
2. Don't want/like Flash? Turn if off. (Or Default, Turn off)
In short, the OS can be in default mode, in simple mode, very fast and smooth; It's up to the user to decide and choose.

But sometimes, business/company may not think like this, such as, one company; It prefers to restrict and control it's users, ensuring they only do what he intend or want them to do; This way, you don't get idiot/dumb users to activate advance features and complains about the problems which actually due to user problem.

I wont comment on Maemo SUPERIORITY because I never really used it. Only circling nipple in the browser nia.

Superior does not mean its successful.

Nnoooo...Stephen Elop says everything comes with WP7 is the best.

There was potential with Maemo but it was kept as experiment for far too long because Nokia simply refused to kill Symbian.There was plan to release Maemo 6 which was planned to mass market & that's when sh*tstorm started.Maemo merged as MeeGo,management changed,people resign & someone from Microsoft chosen as CEO.Nokia is in mess now.At least Elop is trying to clear out things although with an unpopular plan.

I agree with your idea of letting people to turn off functions.
Perhaps it's possible to open another homescreen with a hack?But the major trouble is we don't know if it's remotely possible to run any kind of widget in N9.

Indeed.

early early change to MeeGo mah hou loh.. put what godlike 12MP into the Symbian mah still the same...

no matter how u polish a kancil.. it mah still a kancil.. macam mana boleh race dgn fatlali iOS...

why choose polycarbonate instead of the material that were use in n8??? look mucj much better

N9 launch : Nokia share went up
Nokia WP7 leaked : Share went down deep again

Draw the conclusion yourself

No, you should use NokiaXP comment...

(Yo)u the one need to see doctor coz your brain something wrong. Buy phone to take photo

Cost cutting I suppose
