Excuse my harshness here... but it's incredibly daft to believe that something released would not be wanted to sell millions. Why the **** would you release something and hope that it doesn't sell millions?

Seriously... that's the oft-repeated mantra part that makes me wonder if any of you folks at TMO understand what marketshare, marketing and above all why you produce any thing at all and then sell it only to sell it to your very small niche/clique of friends which ultimately lands it in jeopardy in regards to future support and releases.

Makes zero business sense unless you want it to fail.

2. Symbian still sells millions, I don't see nokia dedicating more to it
It's in a state where repair, retooling and making it modern would cost more, thus it would end up changing its market positioning.

It's an investment that they might not have been willing to make even before Elop came aboard.

Didn't want it to sell millions. Seriously!?
