    Yet Another Android, 16 Feb 2011What, you mean like most Android Only Fanboys, Arrogant and... moreLOL funny isn't that what Nokia fanboys do? You guys bash about fragmentation of android without even knowing how fragmentation really affects end users. Guess what fragmentation is? Nokia has fragmentation too. Symbian S40/S60/S^3 and Maemo/Meego. Qt was supposedly a fix for fragmentation but guess what, Qt failed because it couldn't lure developers. Now Nokia would be even more fragmented due to having Symbian for low end hardware and Wp7 for smart phones. Didn't Nokia fanboys always talk about how android has no battery life? Guess what, you guys will soon be victim of supposed "battery life woes". You guys always talk about how there was no need for displays larger than 3.5" yet when E7 was announced with 4.0" screen you guys screamed with joy. I guess the truth hurts for you kids too much, oh well.

        here you go. Nokia restructuring plan, WP7 for its smart phone.

        Here you go, another link with Intel stating that they will continue to support and pursue MeeGo without Nokia's continuing contributions. Anything else you want to state captain oblivious?

Meego will stay as maemo did, just a very small segment in which developement will be up to others such as intel and open source community. Nokia wont have 3 os they will have 2 being wp7 for mainstream and highend and symbian will be left to low end devices

                      Funny how egerybodygives credit to Android for Dual Core and 3d Cameras. Yet fail to give credit to Qualcomm and LG. Google/Android did not make any of those hardware features.

                        lol, 15 Feb 2011give it time.... android is the new king.Oh so it's ok to give Android time to become great but ANY opposing OS IMMEDIATELY gets bashed and called terrible before it even has the chance? Sounds like typical Android Only Fanboy Logic.

                        Also to who posted "what phone you use an iphone?" I've Owned Many Phones and like Many different OS'es from Android to IOS to Symbian even some proprietary ones were nice like Sidekick OS. You on the other hand want Google to be the only OS on the Market so they can jack up the rates, and tell you, "it's my way or the highway now". Most Android only fanboys don't know how good Competition is for the Consumer but they will see once Android is the only OS available on phones and they start charging $40 for mandatory data (which will become capped to 2 - 5GB). Android is a heck of an OS but I for one don't want it to be the Only OS.

                                        Aargh! Ive been bashed by Android fanboys! So why did Android fell second before iOS if Android has more "innovations" than iOS?
