Tizen is a toy for Samsung/Intel, Meltemi is dead and so is Maemo/Meego. This doesn't mean that Tizen may come out with a cool device or two, but Samsung/Intel is in no position to make a whole new ecosystem. Tizen will be a one off MeeGo kind of experience, if any.

Nokia smartphones are dead now. They only make devices based on recipe by MS. S40 is still alive, but it's more smartphone light.
Problem is I HATE Java/Dalvik crap.

"He defended the choice of Windows Phone as the platform to replace its flagging Symbian operating system, which he said had been in steady decline since 2008.

“Symbian’s market share has come down close to zero,” he said of the decision to switch to Windows."

lol, is this guy really as ******ed as to really think that what he told here makes any sense?

Baidu OS is coming, a Chinese fork of Android + Baidu services. When Android came, the ecosystem was already intact (Google ecosystem with services), apps came with Android of course.

Apple started with an intact app-ecosystem, music and so on. The iPhone just continued on the iPod ecosystem.

You have to start correct. You start with building an ecosystem, then when things get going, you create gadgets and software that are honed to use that ecosystem exclusively. You don't start with the gadget and hope that an ecosystem somehow by magic just pops up.

That's the problem with Tizen. Nice OS, nice gadgets (for all I know), but where is the ecosystem? where are the services?

The N9 took advantage of the Ovi system, the Nokia ecosystem, and in particular the Symbian ecosystem. To be honest though, the S40 ecosystem is going well, but Symbian is on the end of a steep down hill ride already.

If there is any plan B, it has to be Android.

Tizen could build the Ecosystem from Asia via LCD,LED, Plasma or from car's or other infomatics system. You cant know forsure that next mobile OS comes form mobile phones.

LostDOS Paralyzed is a failure, with or without NOKIA's support.
oddly enough, Flop's farts may have made the situation only worse for m$
right now, hardly any of the former partners (LG, Samsung or the like) care to develop m$ devices
so badly that m$ has to start looking to take a subcontractor to manufacture eight devices ¦-))))))

if Flop had shut up, ppl would have gone on buying NOKIA devices and may have picked up NOKIA devices with m$ software "by accident"
as you pointed out yourself, nobody cares to buy NOKIA "smart phones" anymore. certainly not those with $h!t software

and other manufacturers may have gone on, just to be there in case it might have worked out.

now m$ on mobile devices is oblivion
nobody wants it, nobody even cares about it.

I was testing some Qt stuff that I was transferring from Android to MeeGo.

Now? I've sold one, keeping the other N9 for when I travel overseas. Might switch back to my N9 though away from the Lumia 900 since I need a wifi hotspot.
