Nokia Reiterates its Android Stance

who said nokia is good in hardware... i tell you that it's not nokia flagship phone n97 has 600mhz processor and 256mb ram...does u find anything good in this not at all... Latest android 2.2 handsets is a hardware giant has 1ghz processor and 600mb ram ,amoled screens because android demands such a hardware from the phone ... Nokias propietry os is a history which run only on thier phones now..SO NOKIA GET READY TO FACE THE FAILURE...your set has flaw in hardware as well as software soon your phones will be seen in muesiums...ALL THE BEST NOKIA !

This could be the last nail in Nokias coffin. When whole world is getting satisfy with Androids 2.2+ versions (which is really capable too), why did Nokia running away from it. Hardware were never be problem with nokia, but software is. Just keep a s60 device aside to a android one, one can feel how outdated nokia is. Then only God knows, what happens if Windows7 os, comes with same power of android.... Ok, Nokia could run his R&D like MeeGo as a sideway (like samsung do with Bada), etc, but its times demand to catch the bus of android (or WP7). If till nokia refuses to accept public demand, it will be perished.. (This actally happened in tech industry. If Microsoft did sencere efforts early in 2000, Google would not be so big. MS is also wrongly presumed the public choice.) Hey God, pls give some "Subuddhi" to people of Nokia.

Good thing that guy is not part of Nokia anymore. He would have sunk the company. Hopefully, the new CEO will not be as retarded. There is nothing wrong with using available software platforms, especially when they are popular and 'opened'. You can always innovate.... Samsung is heavily relying on Android but is also developing its own OS.

One word: Symbian. Yuck.

the best part is that this comment comes from a guy who is RESIGNING from the finnish shit oops phonemaker haha LONG LIVE MOTO MILESTONE

Hello, just wanted to let all of nokia know that the N900 is the last nokia phone I will ever buy. Also I’m going to use my position in the computer trade to influence phone retailers and customers to stay away from nokia. When people ask about my phone I will refer to it using the strongest profanity. Why you may ask, no free sat nav no flash 10.1 and so on.

Nokia it's been years since you haven't innovate or brought anything new. Your old hardware is just old and let's face it you can't compete with google. There is nothing wrong about being innovative and representing a nice/healthy competition with Android OS or Apple but I don't see it happening. You have lost crucial time and now it's going to be hard to catch up. Your market shares are crumbling and honestly i won't be the guinea pig to try one of your handsets. Good luck anyway!

Because I remember back to computers that had to be switched off before a new task could be undertaken, and everything was done in green text using customised keyboard overlays for every program, I've always been grateful to Microsoft for what they brought to everyday computing. And, before anyone says that Digital Research/Apple did it first, I'd point out that it was actually Xerox Parc that brought us Windows, Icons, Menus and Pointing devices - but Microsoft made it ubiquitous. And who has bought a Xerox computer recently? Or, to name another pre-1980s Colossus, ICL? Or IBM? The point is that computers and electronics are still emerging technologies, albeit ones that are starting to settle, and companies that are giants today might be minnows tomorrow. Sadly, I suspect that Nokia may be one that has had its day. Nokia's top honko's are gone.... New members aren't from Finland (breaking the unwritten rule).. But then again.. I'm not interest in all the rubbish they are offering now and I'm afraid that a lot of people is in my boat also... Still I hope that nokia might come up like motorola do... With a great bang with meego... but they have to come up something now.. or may be we all just remember how we people are glued to a long conversation with partners.. with a robust nokia phone... or may be we just weep a "digital" tear then

I cant say much about the profitability for manufacturers but Android 2.2 & the forth coming versions GingerBread, HoneyComb are slated to be the very best. Already with Froyo (2.2) released on Droid X 48 hours ago - the initial reports suggest a massive improvement over not only Android 2.1 but vis-a-vis any exisiting OS. Having said this, Nokia should work "faster" and be in synch with the pace of developments and not come out retro looking handsets. Even the new breed sucks. They need to come out of their cold Espoo glassy offices and get to warm up for competition from MS & Google. Google has scored highly with FroYo and Nokia needs to take notice of this.

the last good operating system Nokia had was the symbian. their new touch screen smart phone interface is rubbish, compared even to early android versions on low end hardware (G1).

gautum, go ahead and enjoy with androids and other os's in ur mobile..... who cares u hate nokia's symbian os........

Ok Nokia wants to innovate something and dont want to follow others its actually good for us...other company have left innovating and just following google blindly...I think meego will be a great OS..but Nokia should hurry and release the phone quickly...I hope in Mobile world conference 2011
