Yeah..pretty much. :P

But seriously, here you have an article in which former EMPLOYEES of Nokia voice their displeasure at the direction of the company and the lack of follow through on innovative ideas. It's one thing to jump on posts in a forum that are critical of Nokia and call those ppl "trolls" and "haters", but when you can't even acknowledge that the people who speak in this article MAY have some valid points, you expose yourself as...yes...a FANBOY!

@etuoyo

My main gripe is that the type of the screen is only one part of the overall responsiveness or "experience", which is why I'm reluctant to take a stand on which is better. I agree that N97 isn't as good as iPhone in terms of responsiveness. That however, doesn't mean that it would be if it had a capacitive screen. There's a ton of other other factors in play and when I see a good resistive screen and a good capacitive screen on otherwise same hardware running the same software, both fine-tuned I can decide which type is better.

I think this thread wasn't about TS types, so I'll just leave it here.

New York Times still thinks that Israeli raid on the Turkish ship was lawful. It's a failed newspaper with huge biases that entertain New Yorkers. Every company has internal problems, rivalries, missed opportunities. We know in N900 that NOKIA can do it. They make beautiful solid phones....they need to improve their software. And I think they will.

Can do it! is a commercial paradigm that can be used in various occasions. For example :
- when you need to entertain voters with false promises telling them that they can do it!.
- when you sell Jordan sports shoes with motto - just do it!
- when you're in marketing team, and doing all that team-building crap - you can (usually) do it...

Can do it! by itself means nothing, and it's pretty much all it is.
Can do it! needs an object, predicate, which is usually by every means so irrational so it can poly-morph to anything giving great results by means of good-emotional overwhelming of masses ..

It annoys me to new levels that people have to go so far extreme left or right and are hardly ever correct.

By the way, I've written the sort of article you seek, many times. No acknowledgment? Bummer.
Pfft. Hush, I know you have. Sadly it seems like you're US based yet overlooked as part of the US myopia. How does that feel?

Oh well. America... **** YEAH!
