Precisely.
Whereas if apps linking to Surrounds were compliant then maybe they'd
think a little harder.
Remember. They still have policy in their app store that can say "no
apps with external dependencies".
But forward looking and experienced companies like Nokia can enable
Surrounds and permit associated apps as they have done with Extras on
the N900.
if you really think that Nokia will enable Extras on operator subsidized
phones... I think you underestimate how much operators will not like that.
That is indeed why I said Nokia, not Vodafone.
Vodafone probably won't allow Surrounds/Extras (initially) - but at the idea is
that at least they won't be able to say "you're not compliant".
Nokia, as you know, ships the N900 with Extras enabled out of the box.
