I love my n900. But the writing is on the wall. Looks like we have 2 companies trying desperately to become relevant again. Can you smell the desperation? I can. MS sees its dominance in the desktop becoming less and less relevant in a world that doesn't need a desktop as much anymore. Nokia's has failed miserably in the smartphone world. Had they focused more on the n900 and maemo they may have been an option for consumers. After their failure to support the n900, why would anyone expect more from WP7. Pride goes before the fall and the unmitigated arrogance and ineptitude of these companies are coming home to roost. After the last few fails of these companies, and they way they have treated the "eco-system", I can't imagine any developers wanting to bother with these companies. They'll need to sell at least half a billion phones for anyone to bother. Epic tragedy.
