You are not going to fire the CEO under a year, his WP plan isn't even on the market yet. Elop has at least been 4x faster to actually get things moving on than OPK. Nokia Windows Phones could be out next month already.

OPK had years to finish his "it's not about hardware, but software" and failed horribly.
Also it's not like Elop made these decissions alone, board have agreed to move with the Microsoft plan.

250 devices. That is supercalifragilistically small fry. Ok fine 300 it's still that.
That is sabotoge plain and simple.
That is not thinking big, that is not pushing your product, that is not attacking the competition, that is not trying to make a dent in iphone market share!
I'm f'n done pretending. N9 is my last Nokia device IF I can get it.
In no way am I putting down the harmattan devs I'm pointing towards upper management
If you're going to spout ****** conspiracy theories be sure to get your facts straight.

Everyone assumes that limited release of N9 is due to its competitiveness with NOKIA MS phone. I think you also have to look at it differently, perhaps N9 CAN NOT compete in the American market due to disadvantages that we are not aware of. I heard from several reviewers that VKB is not that good. If VKB is not that good, that is a definite deal breaker. Who knows what else may not be good, hence ship it to the Third World

Not available to Australia, I hope it's available to more than just a few countries in the EU.

I would like to say they should make it possible to flash any Nokia/MS phone with meego but MS would never allow that to happen.

If you're referring to the few in this thread...
AIR all were pretty-much watered-down in the end, as nothing to worry about.
The only direct hands on w/a N9 in this thread (undoubtedly w/beta fw) was from 1x person.
And he conceded it was fine overall as far as VKB's go, just didn't have long with it etc.
But you make a fair point...
There may be many other areas that are really crappy, that we don't know anything about yet.
Time will tell I guess....

I have been spoiled by physical kb (N900) so my opinion is a bit biased.
Still recommendation is STRONG buy. gadget is amazing. Simply amazing. Want it now.

I base my statements on several years of gradual progression WRT social media services, cloud computing and mobile OS design. You base your statements on the sales results of one particular OS that has only been in the market for one year.
QUALITY ARGUMENT BRO
