I beg to differ. Go check out all the polls in the recent 48 hrs. You will see a greater than 85% majority for the larger screens. See the response of almost 1000 posts in 2 days. The community...

Maemo Division at Nokia (as of June 1)
A little nugget was dropped this morning from Peter @ Nokia:
Of course, Nokia reorganizes itself every 2-3 years or so, but this is a significant development. Many times, there has been...

I'm not interested in dignifying thinly veiled personal attacks with a response. :) If you have an issue with me, I suggest you take it up with me directly.

Re: N900 specs revealed
For my own part I would be satisfied with just an official: "There will be device in the N8x0 class in 2009 (delivery in Europe/Germany)". That's all I'd like to see, no specs, details or other fancy...

Re: N900 specs revealed
Ragnar, it almost seems like we're saying the same thing. Nokia has more phone offerings than most women have shoes. So, why not just add a keyboardless one to the mix? How can you go wrong?
