I'm not familiar with the Symbian side of things, but judging from their HUGE cutbacks (approved by the BOD and Jorma Ollila), which is no small issue at all since it relates to national matter/pride/economy... then there must be some issues there that they've decided they need to cut their losses out of.
Right, and i agree with that too. But none of this is actually contradicting what i said that you took exception to. All it's doing is supplying reasons for the action. That's fine, but the action always had a reason, as all actions do. That doesn't change the facts of the end though, which is what i put in my original post
