1: openmoko is the future, not symbian
2: if Nokia screws with QT releases, QT will be freed from Trolltech
3: Android (Google's phone/platform) will force Nokia to be open - or lose market share
don't know what Jaaksi was smoking on tuesday, but comments such as:
As an industry, we plan to use open-source technologies but we are not yet ready to play by the rules; but this needs to work the other way round too.
can certainly be misconstrued... i'm sure he didn't mean that Nokia intends to disregard the GPL, LGPL, or other software licensing schemes, but if so, what 'rules' is he talking about? is Nokia going to 'take' and not 'give back'?
yea, *that* would be really productive, huh? nothing like encouraging developers, right?
