      I haven’t. The n9 with meego was amazing. The n900 too but I’m still sour thinking how great meego would be now instead of android.

        N900 and Maemo were already awesome. There was absolutely no need to rewrite the entire operating system. Damn I am still angry.

          Maemo was so much better than any os coming after it… Meego was in my opinion the wrong path to take. I still miss the N900, what an amazing device it was…

      To be fair I think Nokia was already one foot in the grave before the M$ deal. Largely thanks to Mr. Ollila.

      To be fair, Microsoft only bought and killed off the phone division. The rest of Nokia is still around including their R&D department bell labs. You know the same bell labs that’s developed some little know inventions like C and C++, solar panels, the transistor, and UNIX…
