I've been wondering this for a long time myself. Even the fact that the company was steered away from Meego for (at the time) a less functional OS like Windows Phone (damned thing didn't have a twitter app and Meego came with one...) by an ex exec who could potentially benefit from the migration of Nokia's devices to Microsoft OS(if he had options).
Such a shame. Meego was revolutionary and is still imo the most intuitive OS ever made. If only someone reputable picked it up, as it still is revolutionary.
Android took the double tap to turn on and HTC Sense took the app cards but beyond that it still has an edge if it was around today.
- walterbell 12y agoDo you recall when Nokia corporate email was migrated to Exchange, and what was the prior system? In a Hollywood movie script, after failure of internal reorgs, a company could be tanked with deniablity, speculators make $ shorting/bouncing the stock, sell shell to BigCo, retain brand, rebuild new company and new corporate culture. Only in the movies.
- eiliant 12y agoI miss Meego too. N9 is the best phone I've owned (even despite poor app selections). Tried looking into Sailfish but it is a poor replica.

- Spearchucker 12y agoTo be fair it (Windows Phone) didn't need a Twitter app. It is (and was, from launch) built into the OS.
