Feedback
Unfortunately, we don’t have history data about your feedback, as we didn’t start counting it systematically until 5 December. Anyway, the amount of feedback has skyrocketed. So far there have been 867 Beta Labs blog comments, hundreds of application review blog posts linking back to us, and thousands of private feedback items through feedback forms etc. Now, as all of this goes directly to the development teams (everything gets read), increasingly they don’t have time to reply to you. Consequently, some of you have grumbled about us not listening, but that’s not the case. We love you, and we live on your feedback. Not-replying is just the unfortunate cost of cutting out all the middlemen between you and the developers. Hope you understand.

To sum up, 2007 was the year when Nokia Beta Labs was born and got ramped up. There are lots of things that we still need to do, but already now, things look really good. Thanks everybody for your attention and contribution!!
