I'm not into the lumia 900 but I like see the phone at the top of the list. We need more phones,OSes and vendors! not fewer.
Yeah. Besides, if Lumias fail, Nokia might as well die and this for sure would be a disaster.

Where? If you're talking about the U.S., cough up some numbers or GTFO. While we're waiting, everyone can take a look at this:

That's less than a month and a half ago from an article that's less than a week old.

Lumiaman posted that already. It's bull, when you don't narrow it down so much the phone is being outsold by 5 other phones including the SII. Look at bestsellers on the right.

Don't get me wrong, I would sign for it right now if I had a choice, and if, also hypothetically speaking, I could lure all devs to MeeGo, otherwise a good platform with no apps is not very appealing.
Symbian...unless they make it more modular like Android (i.e.: ability to choose default apps for everything) and integrated with sharing services (i.e.: having more sharing options in gallery than just FB and Twitter), I would ditch it for good. Its architecture is old. MeeGo is much better and flexible in this aspect and would have been a big hit, had it not come when Nokia's fame was at its lowest.
Right now, hoping in good sales for Lumias is a win-win because an improvement in the financial situation of the group could serve to keep other projects going in the background. In fact, Nokia never signed an exclusive to MS. They can release other phones with other OSes as well.

Finally someone with a response that makes sense. I agree with you 100%. Others, however, are too hateful to comprehend.

A snippet from Stephen Elop's interview:

Nokia: So, why should we choose you over the other candidates?

Elop: I'll give you a billion dollars.

Nokia: Can you start on Wednesday?
