That's why i fully respect and agree with Nokia's decision to forge ahead with their own OS, so they maintain visbility in the market place and offer something different. If they offered Android as their main OS, i'd stick with my N900 until it stopped working, honestly.
Well as that might be true there is still laptops. Those laptops show that you are wrong. All laptops(not netbooks and apple) use windows 7 and there is room for many players like HP, asus, dell, acer, packard bell and so on... That everyone goes for android does not mean that they are all going to fail. I am not a big android user but I got the feeling that htc have more quality on their phones then samsung and that is something you can compete with. Something else is to give good support and that is something that should not be under estimated. For example my father would never buy a packard bell or build his own computer as he wants the support HP gives and if that makes him pay 50% more it does not matter.
