I'm not convinced of this at all. Can you provide some additional justification? You just think that carriers won't want to support another new platform?

- pavlov 15y agoWhy do you think they'd want to support another new and incompatible platform? What can MeeGo offer to AT&T or Verizon? Both Nokia and Palm/HP have had a very difficult time getting the US carriers to distribute and subsidize their smartphones. They had no interest in adding MeeGo to the lineup, regardless of Elop's decision. The carriers already know Windows Phone and they have a relationship with Microsoft. Nokia has reportedly committed some serious money for marketing their WP devices in the US. The combined resources of Microsoft and Nokia has certainly got some carriers interested.
- mikecane 15y ago>>>What can MeeGo offer to AT&T or Verizon? Customers who'd want an N9 over all other phones. Why should there be only three slots for people: iOs, Android, Windows Phone (haha, on that third one). Since when is telling people what they CAN'T have good business? Where's the free in the free market?
