I think the Ovi Blog is doing a good job, you're promoting the Ovi goods and services and that's great. Let's get real - writing anything positive about Ovi is a tough job at times so all you Ovi Blog-ians should be applauded for the effort

"To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
To run where the brave dare not go"


For 90% fo the Ovi users, ie those with Symbian based handsets, Ovi Blog is relevent and your updates are useful. But there's a dichotomy with Ovi, there's the plentiful feast available at the Symbian table, but only a light snack at the Maemo buffet. And what's there has been sitting out uncovered for days and it don't look too appetising either.

You already know from the comments here that the Maemo side of Ovi feels pretty close to neglected. So when Angry Man in the comic shreds his map to use the orienteering bliss of Symbian's Ovi Maps, it's more likely the N900 owner is throwing his handset in the bin and rooting around in the back of the cupboard for the old atlas his great grandfather left behind after the war. The sail voyage maps of Columbus before discovering America are probably more accurate and useful. For some odd reason Ovi Maps keeps reporting I am in the middle of the Irish sea and I promise I am not that good a swimmer..

So anyway I'd say keep up the good job, the negative comments here do not reflect on you and what you do Rather, it's aimed at the frustration of how little of what you do that we can get involved with and enjoy as well. Pity us little urchins as we reach our empty step 4 of 5 N900 shaped bowl towards you and meagerly ask "Please blog... may we have some more?"
