Bluey pretends to be for kids but it's surely for adults.

It is a solvent but not a solution

I love my N900 and N9 but by the time they were released Android already had unstoppable momentum. It's all about software developers' uptake of the platform. Maemo didn't have it, WP had barely more, but neither was enough to compete. I think Nokia could have been the peer of Samsung as an Android OEM. Their logistics was arguably better even though they didn't have the vertical integration of Samsung.

Edit: if they'd not had the risk-averse management a few years earlier the N770 could have developed into a competitive smartphone platform... But managers were fixated on candybar phones and endless variations on feature phones instead of reaching for their future.

All credit to Microsoft, but as an ex Nokian my feeling is that Nokia killed itself unwittingly when it bought NavTeq. Because of that sunk cost, they were unwilling to adopt Android as it would invalidate the acquisition, with the leaders responsible still at the reins. Life with Android would be far from the heyday of the past, but living is living.

Elon, if you want to make money from the internet, move into a Skinner box panopticon where users can pay to give you electric shocks.

Yes and so is yours
