You know, Nokia could actually change tactics and provide more frequent updates, fixing fewer number of bugs at a time compared to one massive update fixing a higher number of bugs.

This might sound a bit 'unreal' and 'un-Nokia', but remember Nokia has now got different people in the managment, so things could effectvely change.

Do you really think that you can get software with absolutely 0 bugs? Personally I don't think it is possible, because we are over-complicating things (a phone was designed to make phonecalls - and send texts, but nowadays phones can be used for other purposes too).. Be happy with what you have
Zero bugs? Certainly not! But fewer bugs is still fewer bugs, more features are still more features. Improvements, however small, shouldn't be withheld in the name of improvement itself. As the saying goes: "the perfect is the enemy of the good."

You put it well when you proposed that far more frequent updates with fewer fixes would be more welcome and make the platform feel more alive than waiting eons for a fix to problems and features for which you've been waiting for, especially the ones that have long been promised and possibly forgotten.
