Forum Nokia is a sister site of maemo.org that makes up the third part of the Maemo spectrum. Users go to maemo.nokia.com, community types go to maemo.org, and developers (primarily commercial) go to Maemo @ Forum Nokia. This isn't advertising (what, exactly, are they selling?).
The very same as advertising. Now, when will advertising get dropped from the internettabletalk.com front page? Where were these arguments over advertising on ITT?
You lot seem to have enough faith in Nokia to support them continuously into Harmattan, then have faith it'll be done correctly.

...besides, categorizing readers for what ever reason usually ends up biting the author, editor, or publisher in the buttocks.
I suppose for good or ill, in the end... everything is advertising.

, 
or 
would've been appropriate, "fella".

Now, when will advertising get dropped from the internettabletalk.com front page?

If by "mindshare" (qu'est-ce que freakin' se?) you mean what all the rest of us halfwits think about Nokia in the future?
That is already beginning to change in North America... every time someone sees a tablet.

I would think changing the mind set of future customers would be easier when current customers haven't fully identified with what you currently do.
That is I believe, what the "Fightin' Fish of Finland" intended to accomplish in the first place.
I believe history has shown us that in the future, the kids of an NIT user won't think Nokia only makes phones.
Years ago Harley-Davidson had a print ad that just showed what appeared to be at fist glance as a stock photo of a baby in crib. Under the picture the only words where "When did it start for you?"
On closer inspection I noticed that the baby's crib sheets had little H-D logos all over them.
Later on I realized that WalMart pro'ly sold millions of sets of those exact same crib sheets....
nunna, nunna, nunna...

The topic isn't what works for you, remember?

And you bypassed my real question... where were the advertisement hatred then? Hmmm?

And to me, that means the people lesser than us halfwits need not attempt to buy unlocked. It requires computers and knowing stuff!

I had a dang 2 hour composition that I just lost (using a spastic key combination that I couldn't reproduce if ya paid me real money) in total agreement with what you just said. 
I was impressed with how fast iPhone sold 1 million units then 10 million units. The frequency was measured in month's...
Then I recently saw a video about Nokia stress tests. (link added later)
It it, they said Nokia produced 1 million units a day!
I'm thinkin'...
All Nokia has to do is be the next best thing in North America once to dominate a future world market for hand held devices. If what the halfwits in America are all using says Nokia on it, "it" would matriculate to other Nokia users world wide rather quickly.
Motorola learned that any other company would need to be the next best thing over and over again in North America in order to capitalize on a future world market.
I'm also thinkin' that the next battle in North America is between Palm and Apple and there will be blood... The aftermath could also take down at least one service provider.
Nokia is wise to take it slow. I still have hope that if Nokia does get into bed with a service provider, it would be with a totally new one in North America. One that doesn't have to use past business models in order to compete with the status quo.
Who knows? leaks are often calculated.

Seriously. An ad isn't the end of the world.
