This might be a minor technicality, but maemo.org has been passed over to the community, so yes while it supports Nokia devices, it isn't a Nokia site any more.

If anyone was to be taken to court for using a Nokia font on a Nokia device i am sure it would get laughed out of court.
If it had of been let's say an Iphone font then you might have a valid point.
NB off topic but that was an interesting point you made,
"This might be a minor technicality, but maemo.org has been passed over to the community, so yes while it supports Nokia devices, it isn't a Nokia site any more."
Hmm i wonder what people will say about that one.

Pretty cool 'c' and 'g'.
The rest are almost indistinguishable from Verdana.
I agree with this portion of The Register's article:

Oh this was clarified in the recent council meeting.
Now i think the interest in this community will dwain drastically and i must admit the amount of people using this now are also going down in the last week or so hmmmmm.
I think the end will come when Nokia bring out something to gain back market confidence and when THAT happens it is goodbye for sure to this community and the N900.
I always said things were just too slow on here and now it seems my thoughts were right about the future.... oh well .
