My sentiment exactly. Nokia was in a perfect position to launch a third mobile OS. even primer than windows mobile. Nokia was still on top eventhough declining.

My sentiment exactly. Nokia was in a perfect position to launch a third mobile OS. even primer than windows mobile. Nokia was still on top eventhough declining. Many Nokia app dev are waiting to jump into the Meego ecosystem if Nokia commited. People are waiting for Nokia next move. Unfortunately, it was not a great move.
At launch, we know that the software are great. Hardware are great. But the management was abyssimal. Alot of internal politics, burning money, and ultimately, Meego was killed before it was borne into the world. The irony is that N9 was still a great revolutionary phone critically acclaimed, despite knowing its gonna be short lived.
I wouldnt have been so bitter about it if N9/Meego was not great.
