Also, if you think Meego is going to ever be supported, note that Alberto Torres left Nokia today:

From http://mobilized.allthingsd.com/2011...utive-changes/

In addition to announcing its tie-up with Microsoft, Nokia announced a revamping of its executive leadership–a shift that will have MeeGo EVP Alberto Torres exiting the company.
Things are looking up! /sarcasm

What, specifically, about the interface did you dislike?

You know, this makes me remember what happened to Danger. How Microsoft bought a company and essentially destroyed it, for nothing (the KIN phones where in the market for what, 6 weeks?).

Seriously, what was wrong with speeding up MeeGo, positioning it at the top of the OVI Ecosystem (second biggest App store) and strike a deal with MS to support enterprise services?

Shame on you, Elop.

What strikes me is that this 'remedy' is going to take a year or two to bear fruit, so says Elop today. So how the **** is that the best option? If they're happy to take that much time, they could work on MeeGo quietly ironing out all the issues and unleash it on the world in the next 12 months - unrivalled hardware, exciting new software with its promised capabilities of being an all round entertainment centre across a variety of devices and not just phones. Nokia would win back some marketshare, install some trust into consumers and analysts and get themselves known on the smartphone market again, retain their identity too.

Instead they're taking the same length of time to lose their identity, stop support for Symbian and MeeGo so no one will consider buying any of their devices in the short term, and become a hardware manufacturer.

WTF is Elop thinking with this?
The remedy is worst than the illness. Couldn't have said it better. Intel will probably go Android.

Anyone any idea's?.

It might mean to buy up as many as you can because it'll be known as the last worthwhile device from Nokia.
Or it might slip into obscurity.
