> The problem was, Elop was trying desperately to kill it. As someone who had a number of Nokia ix devices this* is a steaming mound of revisionist history. The 770, 800, 810, and smartphone successors were absolutely aweful at basic PIM-type tasks. They failed because their core functionality was dreadful. Want to sync your contacts with Google? Enable redpill mode. They built tablets and phones that were very interesting for people who want to add Debian repos to their phone. This is not a market niche that will make you billions, no matter how often it blames Big Bad Elop. |

Did you ever use an N9? It was nothing like that.
The 770 tablet, and such, sure. But the N9 was quite far removed from the geek toy tablets.
