Possibly Nokia are thinking longer term. After all, they are trying to create a platform, and one that's attractive to other companies, not just one product. In the long term, dependence on a single vendor could be a huge cost. And in the short term, they can get wider involvement more quickly by lowering the initial costs for third-party developers. I'm just guessing. -- Murray Cumming [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.murrayc.com www.openismus.com _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list [email protected] https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
