I did a search for something entirely different and the search engine somehow brought me to this thread. Reads kinda funny nowadays. The App Store did come with a bang, and developers did join the band wagon, and Nokia (kinda) lagged behind.

Just food for thought: what would you do if you were in charge of Nokia's business strategy today and you were with the mission to change the landscape for app development for Nokia's high-end devices?

Dump Symbian altogether? Fund developers to build cool apps from your own pocket? Go to the community and give it hard cash? Something a little (or entirely) different?
