The MeeGo OS is the powerfull, fast, light and easy-for-use OS, but Stephen Elop wants to destroy it.. Symbian will go on this way soon. MeeGo and Symbian should be the primary operating systems of Nokia!

Today WP7 is primary, tomorrow Microsoft terminate partnership and Nokia will go to the pit. After tomorrow, Microsoft will buy Nokia and this will be its end. It's a wrong way!

Elop must know, what people really want!
Right on, good!
I do not so much care for Symbian. No need to waste resources on that anymore, except to support existing phones.

But with Meego, Nokia would have had 4-core Meego-device with PureView camera-module already in MWC this year and I'd guess there would be tens of thousands pre-orders already. The Nokia's stock price would be 100%, I'd assume (and no I do not own NOK currently because the WP-only strategy is, yes a tragedy.)

Throw in Alien Dalvik in it (Meego/Tizen), and it would win the best smart phone prize next year in MWC 2013. This year 2-core Android Samsung Galaxy S2 was rightfully the best smart phone and Samsung the best mobile phone company. Dalvik support would bring a voluminious supply of existing applications right from the start.

Tizen with Alien Dalvik would be IMO better yet, because HTML5 is highly portable and the future of light and moderate weight applications. Tizen has 100% Linux Foundation support and Tizen has started to grow a bigger ecosystem now when Huawei joined it; Intel+Samsung+Huawei. Tizen does not rule out native Qt-applications either although it is not "officially supported".

Globally there is a healthy need for a free mobile OS. WP and iOS are closed fully, and Android also too closed and not fully OSS. All those three OS are easily controlled, backdoored, killswitched by USA 3-letter agencies. I expect China and its 1 billion people will be very interested in Tizen now when Huawei has joined in.

Anyway, Elop and Nokia's board has to publicly tell what they think, if enough people sign the petition. (Now while starting this thread there was 2109 signatures.)
