Re: Nokia CEO Elop lays groundwork for new strategy to be announced next month, a move away from meego? Hello WP7!!

Here's what what I take from the Elop-Ballmer QA kissfest.

Windows Phone is now Nokia's primary platform. This is as clear as daylight.
Symbian is secondary and will be phased out over the medium...

This was decided BEFORE Elop became CEO. He's merely executing on an earlier decision.

Re: Nokia CEO Elop lays groundwork for new strategy to be announced next month, a move away from meego?

It's like a bad daytime soapie...

Symbian = Ageing Dad
Elop = Dad's New Wife
MeeGo = Son
Intel = Rich Uncle
Microsoft = Prospective Lover

Will the wife leave her husband for the new lover?...

Hehe, I enjoy the speculation. :D

Sending inline images requires HTML email. So for me its a necessity.

In some cases I'll attach documents but generally I prefer to view the email conversation without opening other files.
