You're looking at everything through the present lense. Android wasn't in full swing back then. Linux + Qt could have been built up into an amazing mobile OS.

You're looking at everything through the present lense. Android wasn't in full swing back then. Linux + Qt could have been built up into an amazing mobile OS. I'd argue Android could have ended up as the 3rd place OS. Nokia just needed to switch to being the premier Linux + Qt phone maker instead of the only one + trying to lock everything up on top of Linux + Qt.
