I never called that a prediction, I WANTED those teams to win in sports I always take the underdogs, both were rated as suck. Words of a fan not analyst mode, I don't gamble on sports I like watching them. I can tell when a team will lose because I get a nagging feeling in my head and mild sickness in my stomach when I think about the game. I went crazy watching the bears (my real team) and packers hard rooting for your team when you knew 2 weeks before the game they would lose, I support them none the less. I knew the steelers would lose but wanted to be wrong because if they had won the game I could convince myself that the bears losing to our greatest rival team didn't matter that much, it's little solace but makes it sting a little less. And orlando, that was just me rooting for Dwight Howard I want him to get his ring(doesn't mean it'll ever happen)

which many believed would never ever happen is pretty damn good. Also you assume that they won't lose more share since the announcement was made ? How long will it be for a product to get to market ? I'll add you to my list of "I old you so's".

The conversation was about smartphones.....you must be one of the people who I upset. Maybe ?? Let me know.

I'm right get over it, given the overwhelming force Andriod has been they picked win7. The exits are at the back, please leave in a orderly fashion and thanks for coming.

uhm sorry, here's one for you since you love them so much, Nintendo over the course of the next 4-5 years will enter a strong state of decline and only one thing can save them from it.

I'll put up a paypal donation a bit later thank you, thank you all.

On a related note, I'm constantly baffled as to how people take anything written online as a fact. "Engadget wrote about it, it must be true." Maybe I should recap what has happened this far. All these hundreds of articles are based on one sentence in Nokia's Q4 earnings conference call by Elop where he said that as part of their strategy they must "build, catalyze and/or join" ecosystems (note, he didn't say OS, but ecosystem). It was later fueled by an open letter where one analyst hoped Nokia and MS would partner on WP7.

Not once have I heard of any actual insider sources suggesting this would happen. In addition, 99 % of the articles written about this don't bother mention the obvious negatives for Nokia for doing this.

no longer speculation my friend, apparently I'm privy to info you don't have. Come on touch it....come on, stroke it...stroke my ego. Their ya go good job.

So if that's the attention you were looking for, congratulations!

Edit: Just to rub it in, how about them Steelers?
That hurt cause I wasn't rooting for then exactly but hoping roethlisberger could pull out a win against my greatest rival team of the Bears who the packers defeated. I honest to god knew the packers would win, but I fought against it because they are my rivals.


oh well sports is different then the tech world where I am king.

So, you guys think N9 is a worthy successor to the n900 ?
Or will you get behind the seaspray, search or what ever the Nokia winphone collaboration produces ?


"uhm sorry, here's one for you since you love them so much, Nintendo over the course of the next 4-5 years will enter a strong state of decline and only one thing can save them from it."
