Future S40 = Qt+SwipeUI+1ghz hw
So s40 is gonna be the new smartphone platform? That's interesting. One thing is for sure, there are a lot of things happening inside nokia we know nothing about.

Here's what's up.
Apple is making $$$ over their massive ecosystem (music, movies, apps) and their stylish hardware appeals to most people.
Other OEMs are being competitive with comparable software, better hardware and cheaper prices.
Nokia is stagnant, still deciding on how to make their UX.
I'm rocking this baby: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1134583

Why can't Nokia make a MIUI + WebOS hybrid, make a competent underlying software (MeeGo), heavily push for QML/Qt, and market the sh it out of it? They have the hardware portion ready.

The irony that I posted that via my HTC HD7s (a Windows Phone 7 phone) is not lost on me.

We already have Qt+SwipeUI+1ghz hw = N9 with Harmattan.

Why on earth do we need the same stuff on S40 phones. Why use a lot of manpower to do the same again for S40 when we already have Harmattan. Does not make any sense.

Because you don't have all of that at a much lower price point.

If you have 1ghz S40 device with 512MB of ram and capasitive touch screen, what makes it cheaper than similar device with Harmattan?
