That's true, but if there is any lack of phone releases it is likely an indirect effect of the lack of consumer interest in the released devices. In other words the release of a Nokia WP7 phone will boost WP7 sales, but may not necessarily boost Nokia sales more than any other new release.

I base my statements on market trends. You on pure faith and a crystal ball. The very thing you were all too eager to point out was "if the consumer has no interest in it why should Nokia". It could be the greatest product in the world (it's not, but it's certainly not rubbish) but if the consumer has no interest in it then nor should Nokia. Your argument is lacking and incoherent, not mine.
Check the original comScore data; the reason for the "loss" in marketshare is primarily atophying of WM6.5 users.

Well done.

checked already, but your patronising tone is only showing your lack of intelligence in your bid to dispute a simple point. If Win 6.5 is atophying by which I assume you mean atrophying then they are buying other phones, not WP7. It's that simple, it's a marketshare, this is not a hard concept to understand.

I too have an iPod touch; the MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan VKB is on par with the iOS VKB. I know VKBs well enough. I've written a few, and it's no stretch to admit that after PR 1.1, the n900 VKB was one of the biggest pieces of sh*t ever coded.

Please stop repeating your negative VKB hearsay. It's basically FUD.
You are using N950 and NOT N9. iphone has had many itinerations to perfect their VKB and N900 VKB, as you said, was abysmal. Hence you can understand my concern when few peops here are not giving it a stellar review. I will wait for in depth reviews by daily users of N9 to decide if worth buying.

But we haven't got at the core of why they are choosing alternate OS'. I would think there's two real factors at play:

- Lack of carrier support/support from salespeople within carrier stores
- Lack of new devices

Do either of those show great macromanagement on behalf of Microsoft? Not really. But they do mean that it's probably not really worth rating the sales data until Mango comes along with new devices in tow and bridges the service gap that currently exists between WP7 & its competitors. How was Android's first year again?

Honestly son the door is right there, if you want to walk through it at any time I won't laugh too hard.

Not available to Australia, I hope it's available to more than just a few countries in the EU.
At least this is one of the opening a commercial company to support the N9... What was that eco-word Elop mentioned some time ago. I wonder

It grows and quickly...
