Especially under the current leadership, this seems impossible.
Aye, there's the rub. It's a serious dilemma, and frustrates the hell out of me to think about.

It seems like Nokia has given up trying to monetize the UX along with services, and IMO that's utterly idiotic, especially in the long term (going forward services are where you will always make money). And for us, the current thinking is what will keep Maemo in limbo (at best).

At this moment my trust in Nokia is approaching zero.
