It is terrible news today. I was kinda hoping that Elop was keeping Meltimi/Harmattan around to keep pressure on Microsoft, and showing Redmond that Nokia has a viable "plan B" ready. But it seems that Stephen Elop and Chris Weber (also an ex-microsofty, now in charge of global sales at Nokia.) are simply too weak to innovate.
I think the world is better off without WP. It has nothing positive to contribute next to the equally closed iOS. Personally I would regret if the downfall of WP also brings down Nokia, but if that is what it takes, then so be it. Let's just hope they will release PR1.3 before that.
How do you know when you've failed as company? When your own once enthusiastic, involved and committed customers turn their back to you. Good work Nokia.

personally, i liked wp7.. for about 3 weeks lol, then i got bored and traded for a android cause.. its a boring OS. im just hopeing WP8 will bring new stuff to the table. for microsoft fans and nokia fans both. i dont think Nokia would have jumped if WP8 was the same as wp7 considering wp7 has less marketshare than symbian. that would be just plain dumb.
i dont hate any mobile OS tbh, i just like more than others and what not. if we didnt have IOS and WP7 then android or symbian wouldnt stand how it does today.. everybody needs competitors so the other company can improve
ive never used ios as a personal device and i never plan to, thats for sureedit: http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/14/n...craps-meltemi/

I think the update is coming. I received this email from technical support:
As it happens, I am already close to finishing the new version, which will now rely on the stock video player for all playback duties.

I want only one Qt-based phone per year (officially supported) - do I expect too much Nokia?? Maybe Samsung or other company would do it better.
