One of the most respected papers in the world quoting inside sources and you think its a BS article just to get "clicks"... the fanboyism is INSANE here!!

So Nokia had 3 years to deliver, they spend 300 Million euros a year with a headcount of 1,800 on QT and Meego. (for reference Google had 2000 employees in 2004 just before IPO)

3 years, almost 1 Billion EUROS and a so many employees.. the problem clearly was not time (how many versions of Android, iOS, PalmOS were released during this time??)
