the problem with nokia is not it software. The maps are good and other software too. BUT smartphones are about the OS these days! and Symbian(i loved the old s60 version on my ngage) is dead... and windows mobile dont got the big thirdparty app market like android and ios got!

Yeah nokia has great maps but its like with Opera: "Opera the worlds best browser that no one uses"

no one in broadband-happy Western countries, no. In countries where 56k speeds are still the norm, Opera rules the mobile space (in a way, they really are "the cloud browser").

Unfortunately, ruling the low-end is a bad place to be in IT, especially in the fashion-influenced mass-consumer space. No wonder they're trying hard to be acquired at the moment.

on my Android i use Opera too! dont get me wrong i really like opera.

but on the Desktop i dont know why but at this moment Chrome is for me my favourite browser.

everytime when opera gets a new major release i test the version and opera next too.
