Canola is developed by Nokia. The biggest gripe I have with the N800 comes with a lack of cohesion within the ranks at Nokia and with developers on the outside. I agree with the idea that it seems very "project-like", and as such there seems to be a lack of direction as to where the platform will ultimately end up.

I keep on telling myself I am going to wait until next year to upgrade knowing myself I am probably going to wait till June 29th to try out an iPhone and when it inevitably doesn't meet my expectations I will buy an N95 myself. Of course I will keep the N800 its simply too useful to ditch right now.
