    I had such high hopes for Meego. I feel like even if Nokia moved to Android I’d have been thrilled, I like where they’re headed in the dumb phone market

        Oh no I’m aware, I had the n9, n900, and I regret not getting the n950 more than many things in my life. I like sailfish quite a bit but since I don’t live in EU I can’t exactly take full advantage of the android app layer
