Point is that there is a multitude of applications that are developed to 60-70%, being posted about and discussed and used by many. Then..nothing. There is an another slew of applications that works well to 95% but with an annoying bug. Developer is gone. Do I have to use them? No - but sometimes they are the only way to get an application for a particular purpose on the NIT. Would I have preferred ONE application developed by company X and paid $25 bucks for it rather than four applications that ends up unfinished? Yes. Thing is I also love the community development spirit and to try out new applications - I just wish that there was a mechanism to ensure some level of continuity/contingency of community developed app. Sure open source but honestly that seems to be applicable in these situations in rather rare cases. It just feels that it's a constant playground with players that gets bored and moves on - and a 'host' [Nokia] that is not willing to provide a) updates to the existing applications or b) new developments. I'm a NIT user just like you. Granted only with close to 3 months of NIT experience and ZERO Unix experience before I came here. My views are just as valid and I would not be surprised if my frustration is shared by others like me. No but I speak Swedish and lived in Helsinki for a year. Sorry but I stopped reading your post after that as I don't think there is a common platform.
