Time for speculations!

I read a tweet from our well known Eldar Murtazin @eldarmurtazin about the upcoming MWC:

Bravo&applause (without any kind of irony) - Nokia did a really smart move to mass market. Reading MWC materials - more info soon...
Not very spectacular. But if you know Eldar, you know he acts like a Nokia hater and it is not a big secret he favours Android and especially Samsung. Haven't read anything positive from him about Nokia the past 2 years. Or have I missed anything?

So, what could a Nokia hater and a Android supporter consider a "smart move" for the mass market?

Moreover I wonder what it could be after I read last week that Nokia has axed all Symbian device development except a single device. A successor for the N8.

Eldar difficult relationship began with a withering review of a early N8 prototype. So I'm sure he wouldn't consider any kind of symbian device a smart move. Perhaps he meant the earlier death of symbian with "smart move"?

Hardly to believe. Perhaps the Meltemi platform made a good progress?

But since Eldar also don't like Harmattan, why should he name Meltemi a clever move?
Perhaps excepting Nokia has finally integrated a android application emulator like alien-dalvik into their mass market meltemi devices. In this case our android fanboy Eldar would see support for his child in a Nokia device.

Am I right with my thought experiment?

Or would Eldar selling the smartphone division to Microsoft call a smart move? No, not for Nokia. Also Eldar wouldn't selling WP7 and WP8 devices in the low end market (below 50$) smart. Or judge I his mindset wrongly?
