I was fighting for this as well, but I don't think a petition will help.... The decision was already made despite even knowing that it would cause disappointment.

USE YOUR CUSTOMER POWER: NEVER BUY FROM NOKIA AGAIN, AND ADVISE YOUR FRIENDS TO DO THE SAME!!!!!!!

And I complement my rant with a simple question:

Do anybody here really believe that Nokia was not even discussing Meego when they launched Maemo 5 on N900 last year???

If you are that naive to believe Nokia does care for its image with customers, you can believe that and keep being a blind fanboy.... If not, you are probably also angry for spending 600 bucks on a high-end device and get the same support you would get from that U$50 "generic" Chinese mobiles.
