I know you're just being humorous and/or snarky, but I genuinely am interested to know what the difference is. My more dominant skeptical side wants to remind everyone about how Nokia has, in the past, rammed closed-source down our open-source gullet despite pleas from developers' and consumers' to open everything up. My optimistic side is preoccupied with bleeding out, tied up against a chair begging not to be shot again in the arm or leg every time Nokia makes another "WONTFIX" or "FIXED IN [next OS]" gunshot wound.

I assume the DE is good, since it's really open-source. What's the big deal with the official version, then? What's the be gained in it?
