I think there will be more Android phones by the end of this year than Maemo5 powered devices. A few manufactures have announced they want bring a Android phone to the market but Nokia is the only one who's into Maemo.
You can expect Android application compatibility to degrade in 2010. I haven't yet seen any indication Google have their eye on the ball with regard to this problem.

Nokia is creating a new way of running business.
Instead of customers that buy now, and never pay, we now have customers paying now and never get.
That's a great way of making money!
Economics will remember this day for long!

They don't tell consumers when they've shipped it and many retailers could have physically sold the device days, if not weeks, before the 'launch' date. .. if it weren't for the manufacturer forcing them to not give their customers what they want.
A: Consumers have a definite fixed date to base their purchasing decisions around
B: The manufacturer dont get a constant stream of irate calls to their customer services
C: They seem professional and in control of the deployment of their own product.
So for those reasons, would you not agree that Nokia have been a bit silly, to say the least?

Does "lands in the US" mean actually landing at some harbor/airport and then waiting another week before getting to distributors, and 2 before getting to consumers, or does that mean arriving into stores and retailers?
