Confused or What?

After careful consideration I thought that I had to expand my horizons a little bit ( at least phone wise) and started digging for data on my chances of living with an Android o any other "trendy" phone. But I found out that 2010 sucks as the year to innovate. As stated on Maemo Fanatics by Kiron (http://www.maemofanatics.com/meego-what-it-is-and-what-it-isnt/) there is no choice but to wait and hopefully see. I mean Nokia has a huge market share but lately they are not having ideas and rather have turned into natural followers. The fruit company has been repeating the same approach over and over and we all know what is the defined by doing the same thing and expecting different results. As I discussed yesterday with my brother a BB user by habit and not by choice. We the users that really want our smartphones to be smart and not just a technological display of power. We are out of luck this year because all companies are reshaping their strategies to try to grab it's competitor's nest. But ultimately what they have achieved is to discourage people from moving forward. Honestly moves such as a Linux Based Handset that is super powerful but does not have 3G capability for one of the largest phone carriers in the US(AT&T) shows that not many Companies think about their products. Now hearing that Android is thinking about a new flavor of their OS that would leave 2.X as the OS for the lower spec phones only confirms that nowadays the strategy is to launch, sell all you can and then abandon the product. With that being said I think I will stick to my trusty (yes trusty I hardly ever reboot it) E72. And wait until someone remembers that consumers tend to be more loyal if the Company that built the product shows some loyalty too.
