A sentence ending in a preposition and its meaning

[JACEK1]

Hello everybody!

The company makes products that noone knows what to do with = The company makes products with which noone knows what to do = The company makes products, and noone knows what to do with the products.

This is the sentence I heard on TV yesterday.

Do you agree with me?

Thank you.

Yes.

Please note my correction to your thread title.

The company makes products that none knows what to do with.

This is a strange sentence if it is about a fact. Would a company make a product and just let customers figure out what to do with it?

 

[Tarheel]

No, if people didn't know what to do with the product that company wouldn't have customers.

When Apple released the iPad, they were offering a product that no-one knew what to do with. Previous tablet computers had flopped. Apple took quite a risk developing a product with no apparent market, but it paid off pretty well.

OP: note my spelling of no-one. It's often spelled noone as you did, but I recommend the hyphenated version for clarity. The New Yorker magazine (which sticks to its own arcane standards) may still spell it noöne. While I applaud their eccentricity, I don't recommend that spelling.

I usually see it spelled "no one". "noone" looks strange to me (and my spellchecker doesn't like it).
