While I agree that Maemo/MeeGo are whithering away, I really don't see how Windows Phone 7 will save the day. It's having a hard enough time trying to hop up and down for attention and shouting, "HEY! I'M RELEVANT TOO!! HEY! PAY ATTENTION TO ME!" It seems to be doomed to go the way of the Zune itself: nice, but nobody really wants it and there are far more better choices out there.

As for the N9, it does not stand a chance in hell of becoming anything but a complete flop just like it's prior device the N900.
This thread is complete condemnation of what COULD have been somethng if had not been dropped even before release.

"Abill is a community troll and his existence is the bane of us."Was that annoying?Your two statements above were similarly annoying in it's lack of reasoning/backup on such strongly worded sentences.
Let's have a proper discussion or even debate. Backup your statements and talk things through with other members.

We may dislike it. But with hell of marketing it may very well change. And also with help of "patent wars" were the biggest companys will start WAR with smaller once.
Samsung is not allowed to sell Galaxy Tab in German. This is only the start :-(
It may very well be the case why N9 is not sold in German/US too. Maybe its not only cause of Microsoft. Maybe it also cause N9 UI looks to much as Iphone....

I sincerely doubt that a marketing push will help. Consider Windows Vista--for all the marketing it had, it failed to win any fans and the commercials were considered incredible blunders. Microsoft has never been known as a successful marketing company--only a good strong-arming litigant and known for winning through underhanded means, not by marketing (i.e.: these examples). Better still--consider, again, the Zune. It had a major marketing push--a very insistent one that backfired: on release day, they called the press together to announce the new ZUNE and asked all the members of the press at the event to throw their iPods into a bin in return for a brand spanking new ZUNE from Microsoft. NOBODY in that press event took them up on that offer and it turned into a PR disaster.
I strongly suspect that Microsoft will NOT be able to win this by marketing, no.

Nokia's slogan shouldn't be the pedo-palmgrabbing image with the slogan, "Connecting People"... It should be one hand open pleadingly with another hand giving the middle finger and the more apt slogan, "Potential Unrealized." --DR
