Do we really need a new thread for every single tweet?

Nokia don't need Qt with the new strategy so it's expected.

This refers to the Meltemi team, not the trolltech Qt teams....

Also Nokia don't have the money to invest in plan B anymore.

I hope Nokia cuts its connection with Qt sooner. In a sense, Nokia is like a bad lover.

Ofcourse they don't need Qt. Cause Nokia is already dead anyway.

Just like we need a new thread for some of the other crap, like, farewells etc., or when nuckchorris had a new brainfart / observed a fresh darmwind.

Nokia has no need for Qt. Only Blackberry has that need now and they're also on the decline.

Starting to see Qt as not a good choice to study up on.

In fact that may be a bad omen for Blackberry. I mean, can you name one mobile platform that went with Qt (and there have been many) and lived to tell the tale?

Not a one. Qt is an esoteric choice that many larger companies shun.
