Like I said; good luck with continued, official support. There is not one ounce of falsehood in that statement.

I missed no point. If people were to only handpick what supports their wayward agendas and/or speaking points, then they will appear correct.

In this situation, comparing the N900, one item out of many in Nokia's portfolio, but the only one that ran Maemo 5 and comparing it to a handful of Android phones out of many only to support the notion that EOL support happens on a mass scale in that arena is misleading; whereas the only Maemo 5 device got EOL basically in 6-7 months.

Again. That's the unfortunate fact. The official support cycle for the only Maemo 5 device was cut short and it's never going to come back.

Those aforesaid Android devices that didn't make the transition past 1.6 - it's unfortunate to the customer. In fact, both are downright a negative for the customer.

Just seems odd that people are so gosh darn happy about lack of support and are willing to buy multiple devices that are all EOL.

EOL happens. I just cannot rejoice when it's less than 1 year. And if you go back to what I said earlier; that's what the **** I said earlier too. Stop adding ******** to what's been said; it's annoying.
