Or did they s... more"steal it" is not the right words, you can do it if you want, the part that Nokia use is open source as i remember, and anyone can take OS software and use it in anyway the license allow, and open source licenses allow pretty much anything, you can take the source of Firefox for example and re-skin it and add your logo and put a new name for it, that's OK, no stealing here.

The lack of Google services is an advantage for me. I like android, but despise Google services.
I've got two android devices at the moment and both of them barely work because I have anything associated with Google disabled. Google maps is great though.

It seems that people will always talk about "specs" like it's the only thing that matter, even before they touch the devices and use them in real world they judge them, compare them, and even ridicule them!
It's hopeless, no matter how many time people like me try to say "specs is not the only thing" we'll still see 100s of comments, silly comments.

This device sound like donationware to Nokia if I were to buy it. Apart from the looks and ergonomics does it really have anything much over its competitors (which non-Nokia fans can see)?

Very bad battery life, clearly because of old display technology, a TN panel, those things just refuse to let light pass through easily, which is not surprising when light has to pass through two semitransparent electrodes on its way out.
Super cheap phones like ZTE Blade has IPS panels, why dont the tier one manufacturers do the same, both Sony and Nokia are experts in crippling cheap models with horrible displays, and cant say HTC and Samsung been any better at that. Maybe its time to rethink who is "tier one" and not when seeing all the crap they make while ZTE and others makes great budget phones. Well, my money surely goes to the Blade Q if a budget phone is needed and maybe the upcoming Foxconn-made BlackBerry Z3 will be a worthy challenger, could easily turn out to be the best if the price is right, due to its superior OS.
