I know he is CEO and all, but they probably shouldn't let him speak at conferences.
I have thinked about this for a while and now I have finally come up with an opinion.

This only confirms that the management in Nokia are just bunch of floating trunks in the river.

Is it better to expect an end of the world or something like meego making everything better again just because it is cool?

1. Maemo should have gotten at least double the attention already in 2008
2. They didn't have any convincing device strategy with meego
3. because of the major revision with m6->meego, timetables were too optimistically done

I sure hope they learn something from the point number 1, but sadly it seems that they want only jump into old apps bandwagon and keep meego in breathing machine just for fun/hobby.
