I was speechless too. If you read the rant you will understand fully the reasons why. I'm with him on his thoughts on the matter - and the previous posts from fanboys in this very thread are simply justification for his actions.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion, it's not a question of "when I ask for your opinion I'll tell you what it is", that's why it's termed "YOUR" opinion..... The OP has lost faith, moved from Nokia to Andriod. Fair play. I got no argument and neither should anyone else.
Many in that rant were blamed unfairly, wrongly.

But yes, collective defections (bloggers, developers, advocates, etc) is a sure sign of trouble for Nokia. Many of us predicted it when the MeeGo announcement was made. For one, I'm not happy at all to be right about that.

What I don't care for though are the childish slams against those of us trying to find some sort of silver lining. The attacks from the completely disenchanted are undeserved. Just as everyone is entitled to their unique opinion, so are we all entitled to find our own way forward.

My personal goal is to carry as much of Maemo into MeeGo as I can. Others have elected to fly as far from both as they can. C'est la vie, C'est la guerre. No reason to insult anyone over either choice.

Can we agree to disagree? if not, why not?
