At least Jaaksi had a vision. Some of the things he mentioned in his blog post about Maemo are still better implemented in Maemo than any other smartphone OS. Multitasking, IM and Skype integration to OS; Maemo still is a pocket sized computer that's always connected. http://jaaksi.blogspot.com/2009/11/m...art-of-it.html

I think it's not Jaaksi's fault that Apotheker's HP wants to be the new IBM. The funny thing is, that today TouchPad and WebOS are better known than ever, and the tablets with discount prices are being sold out everywhere. WebOS is great, but HP would have needed extremely aggressive pricing with a TabCo style campaign to to succeed.

In my opinion, Jaaksi is still "one of the good guys".
