regardless of how I take this news, I am pleasantly surprised that for once on talk.maemo.org, I see a strong positive response to something Nokia has done (or announced)... amazing

Unless symbian 4 on N8 allow me to connect my two geforce cards in sli, and let me have a ps3 emulator, I will be still waiting for an N9 =)
Well, if Nokia thinks this is the right move, I will support...
I still think there shouldn`t be N8, just a huge compatible and versatile N9.
This is one of the differences between us nokia users and the others, we have many options, but all of them could be integrated in one single device. Anyway, this is not to be discussed here.
Thanks hellflyer, good to be up to date with some nice news =)

in the Q3 earning report there was a lot of mention regarding problems with supplies and components......what is all that about? I wonder if suppliers are getting a better deal elsewhere and choking off Nokia........doesnt sound good.....

One thing i'm very happy is that Nokia(because of Elop or not) is finally making some decisions and announcing them.

As all the Symbian Foundation, harmattan work began, finding information as what is what and will that get update and where is the OS moving in the future has been more than hard. Relying on some dev forum talk and people from Nokia talking in some dev events.

By all means it's not all clear yet and the thing i'm still not sure is what's happening inside harmattan, but hopefully this kind of information to us continues.

it means that components could not be supplied to them fast enough for devices to meet demand in the low/mid range end.
there was problems with supplies industry wide

Samsung has been hogging all the Super Amoled screens for their own devices and everyone else has had to make due with whatever other technology they could find. Nokia is also suing a few LCD companies for price fixing so that must have left some bad blood between them and those companies.

Fact police, LOL. Nokia has finally made an announcement that makes devices running their main (and best, by far) OS, Symbian, have a bright future including the OS itself (when all the misunderstandings have been cleared out). This is a time to be joyful, not a bitter old grunge

Thought like said above it was about low end. Nokia was limited by the suppliers this year on the low end side and so actually sold less low ends than last year. Nokia said this will continue next year too.

Nothing to do with S AMOLED type of components.

Not just low-end, Nokia specifically also mentioned a shortage of AMOLED, and given that all the announced Symbian^3 (oops, Symbian :P) handsets use AMOLED variations, that can constrain them a bit on the high end too .. if you consider Symbian high end
