are you suggesting that sticking him to office where he can read email and do paperwork all day would make things better?
on an other hand he would have a lot of restrictions when working at nokias payroll, test builds etc would be internal only, ...
so imo he should be left doing what he does the best and rewarded somehow by the community,

I know that this is rumors but it can be true bot campanys loosing invesntments atm... Its could be a win/win situation...
But VERY bad for the opensource commonity if it happens.
Thats it. I'm out of hash, but after reading your post, I'm sure you smoked enough for a few days.
As for news. Sucks. Seemed like a bright fellow, a visionary.

adopting either Windows Phone 7 or Android is effectively shutting down software development at Nokia. It is deciding that Nokia can't develop software at a competitive level to RIM, Apple, Google or Microsoft.
Why would you attract a CEO with experience in software development just to reach that conclusion?
If Maemo 6 is delayed or if it isn't sufficiently ready for mass-market end users, that could be a reason why Nokia would want a different VP in charge for MeeGo. Maemo 1 to 5 were developed by the same group but intended for a much smaller, much geekier audience.
Can the Maemo team deliver a mass-market i-OS/Android alternative?
We just don't know yet.

Nokia will ship devices running Windows XP and Windows 7. Even better running OSX.
Nokia will now stop making OSs and deploying a blank device which support all sort of Mobile OSs.
Nokia device will have a AI chipped built in and will not require any OS in it. It will basically learn from your everyday commands and copy every other devices functionality by viewing it.
Don't start the impossible rumours lol.

Jaaksi's vision of Maemo was actually a big influence for me to get the N900. Almost a year later I still enjoy many of those things listed in his blog post, and right now I'm a bit sad to hear him leave Nokia. Hopefully there are still lots of people sharing the same vision, Quim and others, who continue to support N900 and create wonderful MeeGo experiences in the future!

Nokia is and has been the laughing stock of the phone world for at least 2 years now.
There is really only one reason MeeGo might do any good:
-Intel
Don't kid yourself man, N900 was an epic economic failure. Don't even get me started software and support wise.
In fact, if MeeGo doesn't do better than Maemo it will be their biggest failure ever, might just end up like Kin.

Are you not using this failure device right now? Infact if you saying N900 is an economical failure then you meaning the whole NiT things?

Late releasing MeeGO = losing a portion of market but will slowly gaining later, just like iOS. Released it late in 2007s and now was one of the best seller. They did their researched, so MeeGo should be too.
Adopting Android = quick gaining but then losing due to all other smartphone out there are running Android OS as well. Losing at the end.
Adopting WinMo7 = Microsoft might end up buying Nokia completely and Nokia may become one of the Microsoft Branch. Losing badly in the end or suicidal. I hope not this option.
