Thanks lemmy - that is exactly what I am getting at

This place is full of posts saying how this or that perfect for "ME" and because _I_ like it, Nokia must be doing very well and will continue as it currently is.

Combined with an elitist attitude (the tech snobbisness here is as bad as the apple fanboy RD field), contempt for the mass market where the $$$ is and a seeming ignorance of how major decisions are made in a corporate structure, this breeds a tunnel visioned POV that is totally ignorant of the real world that operates on different rules and priorities.

Then when Nokia reveals that it is NOT doing well (this is NOT Elop, the BOARD put him in charge) and changes tack, the posters here shriek surprise and betrayal and there are even calls for persecution (WTF its a corporate decision !), charges of treason (double WTF) and even calls for violence on Elop's person.

I shake my head. This place is great for tech and the community is super for supporting the n900, but objective it aint.
