Today WP7 is primary, tomorrow Microsoft terminate partnership and Nokia will go to the pit. After tomorrow, Microsoft will buy Nokia and this will be its end. It's wrong way!

I agree with most of your post, but not witht his part. Only because users have high demands (in terms of technology) and/or prefer free (as in freedom) software doesn't mean they're cheapskates.
Quite on the contrary, both the N900 and the N9 are high-priced devices and hardly to be found in "plus a free N9"-contracts. So we are consumers who do pay for technology and gadgets; a lot. There may be some of us, as in every market segment, who think that €0,90 for an application is too much... but I'm certain there's not more of those people in the Maemo community than there are among iOS or Android users.

Many of them have lost their jobs as a result of Nokia's managerial incompetence.

A number of users and enthusiasts demand from the Nokia the further MeeGo support and N9 successors development. They expres those expectations and encourage to support them in form of petitions, e-mails, articles, blogs and similar internet actions [26]. Their efforts are hoped to be the more efficient when the more mass and combined.
Just one more fact about Nokia N9. Unlike this? Just don't sign.

So determining, yeah
