Man, it was fun while it lasted.

It's pretty hard to be angry this time; at least they went out in a blaze of glory sacrificing just about everything they had. Only time will tell if their strategy of cooling off their remaining loyal developers with a nice golden shower was the right idea. The current stock price certainly reflects this.

Regardless of what happens, I love my N900 to bits. It's by far the most powerful handheld device I've ever used, certainly the best thing Nokia has ever made. Hopefully Qt will live on, even though the "unified developer story" has just been taken out into the square and shot in the genitals, along with any chance of R&D funding.

So, I hear HP Palm is going all in with this Linux thing! Hey, if it's good enough for Ari Jaaksi...
