Those analysts don't get it. They say:

"No developers who attended were using a Nokia phone"
and
"Nokia have fallen into the trap of paying to recreate the desirable symptoms of their competitor"

But it should be obvious that most of those developers will change their personal phones the second something better comes out. Nokia is forced to spend money to create buzz now, but only people who have seen the N9 will know what next year will look like.

So it's easy to say something new is always around the corner, but the N9 really is a special case, since it's the first mass market Maemo/MeeGo device.
