N9 is the first device running on new OS so it got nothing to do with any hw cycle. Symbian in a other hand has crap long development cycle just by looking at the leaks, release time difference and what Nokia workers have been telling on the amazing internets.

WP being perfect example if it there will be 2-3 Windows Phones released by the end of this year.

Android has an open-source community helping (actually helping!) the development in addition to the community of handset manufacturers within that same development cycle, too.

How does Nokia square that with also having an open-source community built around Maemo who WANT to help develop during the development cycle so that they can concentrate on building better hardware?
yeah and the AndroidOS is optimized for the new hardware? NOT

Even if N9 hw is old I am 100 percet sure it is faster(more optimized and tested) than many new devices with Android even dualcores.

It's not running a new OS, any more than Gingerbread phones and Honeycomb tablets are running a whole new OS.

Linux and Android are optimized (and continuously optimized) for new hardware, yes. Individual Android applications don't need to be because they're running on a VM. Perhaps that's what you're confused by. It sounds like it.

Given how many updates are in the future of the phones from Google, optimization isn't a matter of if, it's a matter of when... keep waiting on PR1.4. I'll have Ice Cream after Honeycomb.

Then it should cost less. Old *** hardware = cheap *** hardware.

Not the case with Nokia.

It's not cheap here. In the USA, we're still using the archaic system of subsidization - something that nobody else in the world does.

Skews our purchases, keeps us tied to a carrier system that makes very little sense to those in it, let alone those on the outside of it.

Ok. Computer are very cheap. Thought phones were the same. So the phone is locked to the carrier. That sucks. But still cheap

It's cheap only every two years or so. Otherwise, full prices.

Computers cheaper here? Yeah... that's very true. I always held off buying machines until I was back in the US back in the day.
