second. All of google's good products are proprietary. Chrome (not to be confused with chromium), Android, et al. all have proprietary components. We can't sit here on a forum for an operating system for mobile devices and pontificate about how open we are, when there is simply no open source phone/tablet (try reading the title of the thread next time.) that has all of said features and advantages and benefits of competing products.

Try reading up on what's going on before posting a kneejerk reaction.
What gets me is you bounce wildly between wide, sweeping attacks on open source as a whole, then narrowing down to Nokia's mishandling and poor communication when it suits you. Then you suggest that open source is wholly not viable, despite the widespread evidence that this is not true.
