I hate to bring elops actions here but its not that the engineers are not capablee as much as the fact that they are not getting the support they should be getting.

Especially with the number of programmers that quit cos elop decoded it was better to put all eggs in one untested, declare the rest as dead OSes. If i was a developer and one os which i have been a part of developing is called a dead os and this is scrapped, i would not be very excited. Especially because by your own definition, im working on a dead os.

N900 was out in 2009. Any serious company would have already been working on a sequel. elop made his decisions at the beginning of 2011. Lack of optimization has nothing to do with Elop. It has to do with previous leadership and engineering. None of the Nokia phones are optimized. Ever use N8? Oh my, what a non-optimized fiasco was that

Oh, you can have that easily. Just remember to close your app before you open the next, just like WP7 does.

Just a little optimization would be wonderful, anything but go back to Android which crashed all the time. (Sensation at least, the Amaze was better but too bulky and had rotten battery life).

The beauty of N9 is the open operating system and it works great on T-Mo USA.

This seems also true for other countries. My favourite mail order shop here in Switzerland has marked his remaining stock with "no reorder possible" about two weeks ago.

I am missing it so much

I totally agree - this is the main reason I havent bought one yet!

If the transmitter was working I may still still get one, though holding out to see what the Pureview 808 is like. Symbian still turns me off though..
