Sometimes these conversations make me feel like I'm in a tiny minority.

I have loved every one of my devices in this family, from my original pre-release 770 to my slick N9s. But for the most part it's nostalgia that has me hanging on to the older tablets, since for whatever reason (Flash not updated, GPS app abandoned, etc) they have not kept up with my day-to-day needs.

I have played around with N9 development and starting to get a handle on QML. If only it was as easy to develop for the older devices, I might come up with some projects...

Anyway, like Quim, I'd like to see council candidates who avoid getting mired in the muck of How Things Could Have Been and focus on today's realities. And if that includes finding ways to bring new life to old devices, great! Conversely if it means forming a bridge to opentablets.org, than I'm definitely on board.

Regardless, let's find focus.
