The following excerpt is exactly my sentiments as to Nokia's huge fumble with the IT's and Maemo:

"The mass market doesn’t buy, and doesn’t want to buy, products based on what they might become months from now if these companies somehow dramatically improve the software. They buy products for what they are today, out of the box. Motorola and RIM and Samsung are Apple’s industry peers. These are the big leagues, this is The Show. They’re charging customers real money to buy these things. They should be judged by the same standards. "

Exactly. How often on here do we and did we hear about what WOULD be done and what WOULD be added that never actually happened? What about the stuff that WAS released only to be "unplugged" later?
