I’ve been noticing more and more lately that even the most dedicated Nokia/Symbian fanboys seem to be going out of their way to berate Nokia handsets. The same people who blog about Nokia, comment on tech blogs all day about how great S60 is, recommend Nokia handsets above all others and so on, spend nearly as much time within Twitter, IMs, emails, etc complaining about their favorite Finnish phone maker. Should Nokia be troubled by this? Troubled by the fact that even it’s most staunch supporters seem to be growing tired of its products? Or do fanboys make up such a small portion of it’s business that they just don’t matter?

Me? I’d be worried. Handing out free phones just doesn’t seem to be cutting it anymore.
