For me it is just another reason to see Nokia as what is it, a large faceless corporation without soul.

Washington Post Article:

Nokia has sold out from its European roots and become an American type company. The consequence of this is that they simplify everything from the website to the product portofolio. Europeans like choice, difference, options and quality. Americans like simplicity, uncomlicated things.

The new website is pure crap, no useful information anymore, and with sole focus on a very few devices. on the portofolio Microsoft, eh I mean Nokia has gone from something for everyone to one thing for no one.

Like any good American company Nokia has outsourced all its production to Asia to keep jobs out of America or in this case Europe.

additionally the few devices they have now are aimed at simple minds with no consideration for quality. Just look at the GUI of Winphone 7, its ridiculous. In addition Winphone 7 lacks essential features that one would expect in the basic package of a mobile operating system. Like Iphone they will probably need loads of apps just to get decent functions on the thing, and tons of apps to compensate for a shitty browsing experience and one app for each website because the browser is not able to perform those internet tasks.

Winphone like Iphone is a severely physically handicapped man with no wheelchair, that require apps just to perform normal tasks.

how about tiles everyone? welcome to a past that is being written today!
