Well it did not take long for the bickering to flare up again did it?

I think we should have a button and when 10 users click it. A troll avatar appears for that user 24 hours.

Now. You should all have a troll avatar by now.. :D

Thread closed!

In my past experience, Nokia's maps were horrid--but they were admittedly better than Apple's attempt. Even Google Map's first attempts were nowhere near as bad as Apple's foray. Still, the point remains that Apple is still selling better than Nokia. But! Is it the phone, the platform for the phone or is it the maps other other bundled apps?

Also.. where is my troll avatar? I don't see it yet. ;)

The world forums have lit up slamming the new iPhone 5 map services as rubbish.

Its even being shown on BBC news this morning that shows what a complete c*ck up they have made.

They are virtually unusable for many use cases.

As a hobbyist iPhone developer we have had to disable many of the satellite mapping services in our apps as the new views are either completely unusable or even non-existant on iPhone 5.

We are already in the process of porting the apps to Android where the satellite views are near perfect at a useful resolution.

At no point would we consider porting our apps to WPx and nothing you have contributed has helped that decision process.

Then what in f*ucks name are you doing in an off topic thread about Nokia stock ? And who cares about your sorry attempts at making (fart)apps anyway. On WP we have real apps :) So get out of this thread, and do your trolling somewhere else.

Like no official Gtalk, Google Voice, Google Maps or Google+ apps. Or an upgrade path from 7.x to 8.x. Or even a Skype that runs in the background. No App.net app. No Instagram app. No VLC. No Adobe apps besides Acrobat Reader.

But there is a fart app on WP7...

Real apps. I have a Lumia 900 and wouldn't say something that daft.

You should have a more open mind. To be fair, here's some points about the iPhone 5:

Nokia's failures are correlated to Microsoft's Windows Phone platform, but responsibility for causation doesn't necessarily rest on the shoulders of Mr. Elop's decision to go Windows Phone. Rather, it was arguably from making the decision to early (perhaps) and taking a bizarrely long time to get Windows Phone product to market.
Somebody's been reading our threads.

Anyway, I see that there's been few thread-related updates while I was unavailable the last week, so here's a few E24 graphs.

All graphs are NOK1V:Helsinki:Euro.

New week, new failures. Here's today's first hour and a half drop:

Now I am off to read if Ahonen has anything funny to say lately.
Edit: Found nothing noteworthy there.

Exactly, only real cool apps, no G-junk. Spotify for Android, is it called G-spot?
