Re: Amazon Kindle

Can't really agree with you here. What Geneven is referring to was the upset when Nokia dropped the NIT 4.1" screen to 3.5", which was the size of the iPhone and pretty much all other screens at the...

Re: Samsung Galaxy Q

There are those of us who want a large-ish pocketable non-phone wifi-only tablet. (Well, speaking for myself, I'd take a cell data connection, but only if it worked like a prepaid phone -- i.e., you...

Re: bunanson wants to buy viewsonic gtablet $260 shipped; any advice?

How about a 7" Archos for $200 (http://slickdeals.net/forums/showthread.php?t=3096504). Most reviews seem quite high on it so long as you are willing to tinker a bit (and, bun, I know you are) and...

Re: Request to Nokia, give us back our tablets!

Heck, if they would just build a faster, RAM-richer N810, I'd be satisfied if they just stuck Diablo on it again!

Re: N950 with MeeGo this year, but who trusts Nokia anymore?

The announcement of Nokia's offer of bonuses to its Meego programmers gave me a nice bout of paranoia. (Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.) Already referenced on...

You say neither iOS nor Android "can show the same wide functionality as Symbian had 7-8 years ago."

I've never used a Symbian phone (or were my very-low-end Nokia phones running on...

Re: Nokia - Microsoft partnership (merged threads)

I rather doubt the contract with Microsoft will allow Nokia to just "jump ship to Google". In fact, I expect it forces Nokia to greatly limit even what it does with MeeGo.

Re: Nokia - Microsoft partnership (merged threads)

Actually, it's a car. They're part of the automobile consortium that's backing MeeGo, and they've been building theirs from the ground up. That's what's taking so long.

Re: Is there anything we can do??

I couldn't agree more. As I said on another thread today, it's a mystery to me how they made so little progress. What was so hard?

So blame there precedes Elop. What Elop did was eliminate hope....
