At the end of the day the general public can spot a turd a mile off, even a well polished one like WP7, and there just aren't enough salesmen good enough to manage to sell turds.

If I was Nokia and I had a free hand to do what I liked (and I suspect the deal with Microsoft limits what they can sell where) then I would..

1. release the N9 globally
2. Update and release the N950 globally as a highend "Communicator" device packed with whatever tech can be squeezed in
3. Continue development of Harmattan in house
4. Develop and launch a Harmattan device at the £100/150euro price point ASAP.
