So no this is not "excellent news"

Excelent news is when we get Qt5 from the FOSS community. And hopefully a last update PR1.3 from Nokia.

Please move this thread to Android fanboys subforum.

While I do agree with you that I would take native applications over non-native ones any day, I disagree with you because you seem to have that holier-than-thou attitude, as if your narrow and, quite frankly, useless opinion is the only opinion that matters. This is excellent news because it adds value to the MeeGo platform, specifically to our N9s and N950s. Sure, there are a lot of crappy Android apps, but there are also a vast amount of apps that are actually pretty good and well written. The same can be said to our app library. Just look at the Nokia store. Tons of useless "news applications" that are nothing more than shortcuts to websites. Of course, lots of nice ones too.

This project adds value to our devices, hence it is excellent news. I would rather have "the option", rather than have "no option at all".

No single platform can be absolutely perfect. It's a fact of life. The same way no single country produces everything it needs and has no need for relations with other countries.

By no means was this a fanboy topic. It's just that some people here think they know everything and that they are very well respected, but in reality, most people think they are shallow-minded mongrels who are in over their heads.
