As a consumer, I found this place by mere accident; and by far, it's proven itself to be the leader - so much so that Maemo absorbed it.

I've learned the in and outs of my 770 and my N810, while waiting patiently for Android or Mer to be easily installed (FIASCO image perhaps) on the 770, and reading about the upcoming N900; I've started to spend less and less time here simply due to a perceived shift in focus from community first to ego first.

And sadly, I like this community. A lot. Enough to have issues with parts of it being extremely negative; meanwhile I still moderate/add to a community of some 600k users at Flashkit.com since I'm a Flex/Flash dev - and my needs for the tablets are rather esoteric compared to most people here.

However, the community, I think will "sort" itself out. In my 9 years as a super moderator at FK, I've seen trends and egos come and go.

Just wished that things were not as separated as I perceive now though. But that's my 2 cents... which given the current inflation and deficit is worth only .037 cents by the time you've finished reading this.

Best of luck to talk.maemo, nee ITT.
