If your expectations were this high, then it's no wonder you're so violently disappointed. Large corporations with huge amounts of resources haven't managed to get as far as Jolla have in their limited time - and they weren't allowed to take as much of Meego as you seem to think they started with. No-one here is claiming that it's perfect, and certainly not as polished and complete as the competition. It's never going to take over - the best we can hope for is a niche where people who want to tinker with their mobile devices can do so, and create things they couldn't dream of on larger platforms. They're not even there yet, but they're taking steps in the right direction, and I hope they continue to do so in spite of the arrogant, entitled opinions like this getting shouted from the rooftops. Because if people like you were in charge, nothing would ever change.
