Disagree fully here. Nokia was Nokia before any mention of any OS. That's a rather recent addition to their plans and identity; one that's rather easy to remedy/

Nokia has always been known for innovating - and that's why i've always had so much respect for Nokia

My time in Africa or Europe... I'd say otherwise. They've been known for reliability. Something that Maemo, MeeGo and now WP7 just do not deliver. Not saying Symbian delivers it either, but other historical phones from Nokia are still in use by folks that have no reason yet to upgrade or do not have the means to do so.

The N9 was an innovation with Swipe - something that was an excellent idea, and should be used on ALL touchscreen phones

Indeed. But watch Android, BB10 and iOS all pull the best parts of Harmattan into their OS's going forward. Harmattan was before its time. Yet, it failed to garner support from within and without.

I doubt WP8 will bring a lot to the table. And that's knowing full well that WP7 has so much room for improvement.
