Same with Android, although to a lesser extent.

The one trick Nokia has up it's sleeve is the open platform it is pushing, we want that to succeed so much - no really, we do - that over the last 5 years we've overlooked the poor out-of-box experience, under developed stock applications and complete lack of services. After 5 years, and with only an improved out-of-box experience to really speak of, is it too much for you to understand that some of us are coming to the end of our tether?
yes, as I have already stated in this thread, I understand.

Nokias services have been totally zero until they woke up recently. Under-development is probably because lack of workforce working with Maemo. And there are very logical arguments to all of those if one knows Nokias history. Still it is gigantic ship and it cant turn 180DEG as fast as I do with my rowing boat. It's a bit paradox: small companies don't have resources to do it and big companies lack the reaction speed.
