Device software: still in beta
Scratchbox harmattan SDK: still in beta
Harmattan Qt SDK support: still in beta
Ovi store for haramattan: still in beta

Maybe Nokia will just rename it "final" at some point, but it could also be that Nokia still has a very long to-do list before they believe the device will be ready.

Also isn't it customary that there should be at least one release candidate that gets thoroughly end-user tested, before the final release? All this sounds like a very late October release if not (much) later.

Its not Elop that is holding this up. Its software, as usual.

Doesn't mean they couldn't have gotten much better with the right reforms, & emphasis/focus.
Much earlier... of course...

You're one of those freaks that argue they can only do hardware, & that's all they must focus on, + a tiny fraction of the stack.
LOL, good luck with that, against the likes of Samsung et al.

Like there could be only one browser.

If the other browsers integrate well with the system (for example I can choose to save bookmarks from emails and open them on the other browser instead of the default browser) then there is no problem. If the default browser gets in the way of this there definately is a problem.

Only interesting in the sense that it gives you a rough idea how telco distribution is developing or not (at least seemingly).
