So for you "Silicon Valley" = "iPhone"?
Anyway, good luck with this discussion. Moving it to General.

They are not going to make any progress with the way they are treating their flagship N900 customers. First rule of business - Make your existing customers happy.

The overall article is not disputable, but some details are:
N-Gage was first a gaming hardware platform, then a software platform, not a single game.
And Nokia did not lag with sliders. I think most of us know who made the "Matrix phone".
You'd think an analyst would get his details right, given that info is just a click away...
Innovation is where Nokia has faltered, experts say. After much hype, its N-Gage online game flopped. And it's been slow to catch on to market trends, from folding "clamshell" handsets to phones with sliding tops and touch screens. It was forced to quickly ship models with those features to markets.

yeah installed imployees. Employees are like software or applications. Due to Nokia is short in applications for N900, its installed more than 3000 more employees to Maemo5 to boosting the amount of installable item in Ovi Store and Repos. lol
This is hillarious!

And I owned a 7710 (a touchscreen Symbian phone) - before the 770 tablet was released.
But, I've lived in Silicon Valley, there is a lot of innovation there (here - I still live only a little north of the valley proper).
Apple is part of it, but they are not the whole. And there's a reasonably large Nokia facility right off the 101 highway which runs between San Francisco and San Jose (and beyond).
And, a large Evil Empire (sorry, Microsoft
) campus in Mountain View.

Still doesn't explain why Nokia should treat the s60 owners any better..

"There is no doubt the center of mobile innovation has shifted from Europe to Silicon Valley. We are working to tap into this innovation," Kallasvuo told analysts earlier this month. He said Nokia had installed more than 3,300 employees in North America to redress the balance.
When Kallasvuo took over as CEO in 2006, he announced that a top priority for Nokia would be to improve its performance in the U.S. market, but success has been elusive. Sales volumes in North America plunged more than 7 percent in the last quarter from a year earlier to 3.8 million devices, which does little for the company's image in the region."
