Ah, it's always good to get home from a hard day of work and get kicked in the testicles.
You know, I had already made up my mind that I didn't give a crap if the N9 was released in the US. I was going to import it anyhow.
Most of the electronic devices I have ever liked have always hit it much bigger in Europe than in the USA. I don't know what it is about Americans, whether they just always go for the cheap, or they are just so used to being screwed over by greedy politicians and corporations that they just accept whatever steaming nuggets that are sold to us.
For example, back in the day, the Atari ST and Amiga were both far superior to the Apple Mac and IBM PCs. Yet where is Atari and Amiga now?
Oh speaking of that, when I read that they'd be moving all of their crap to Sunnyvale, I instantly got a flash back of Atari and their rise... and absolute fall there.
It's like the battle of VHS vs Betamax. As many have attested, MeeGo is superior to WP7.
Also notice, it's another ex-Microsoft anus face that is head of the USA market. Are they seriously so brainwashed by MS that they believe that the WP7 platform will miraculously sell a crapload because Microsoft is a company based in the USA?
I don't even know a single person that has a Nokia phone, besides myself. I even try to spot them in stores here and there never are any. Everyone who wants a smartphone pretty much already have either an iPhone or an Android. Not to mention they already have some money sunk into whatever apps, or at least are used to the free ones that are ad supported.
I've personally seen one WP7, and it really looked horrible with it's big square tiles. Ugh, didn't actually use it, have no real desire to.
This whole thing makes me wonder something though, how many MeeGo developers that got the N950 are located in the USA?

P.S. I'm one pissed off citizen of the USA.
