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?

point 1 - er no. I have a personality

point 2 - I've been quite pleased with Nokia compared to some of the competition. I feel they may have dragged their feet a bit but N900 and future devs are promising.
At the end of the day if Apples are so inviting, move to them. I think they are a bag of cr4p with nowhere near the level of functionality that I'm looking for. I have a brain and don't want to be guided on my phone usage by Apple or any other firm.
