Microsoft cannot - will not - ever allow that to happen. Nor will Elop and his cronies. Nokia has been infiltrated. They will be assimilated. Resistance is futile!
Elop is on hot pan now - shareholders see an example how to save a failing company.

There are rumours that Samsung may make a move for NOKIA.

If Samsung had NOKIA's patent portfolio under it's control Apple would have to fight with them toe to toe in the marketplace rather than in a court room. Samsung would love that, Apple would hate it.

If Elop succeeds in taking NOKIA down I would much prefer it if Samsung nicked their IPR from under M$ nose. It would be funny if Elop's sabotage and willful destruction of NOKIA actually resulted in Samsung getting patents to bash WP with.

Well, Elop is forced to do something but from possible variants he would chose some which hurts M$ the least and I guess it would be Intel but not Samsung because of (... read your comment).

Nokia it's going to hard to be bought

to buy it someone needs at least 25B---30B+

buyers can be either microsoft, samsung and intel.

it would turn samsung into #1 mobile manufacturer in all markets.

for microsoft it would force nokia to use WP7 even it fails like it will.

and intel would get someone to push x86 to compete with ARM.

Almost opposite of Motorola. Motorola is a small fish, they only make android phones in small numbers, but have a large bag of IP. Nokia is gigantic, but do not have a proportionally larger bag of IP.

M$ probably think they're the shoe-in for the deal because Elop is Ballmer's puppet, the shareholders may well see things differently.

"Microsoft is facing an existential threat, says Mr. Evans. In a world moving away from a pure PC environment, it has to have a mobile OS. Nokia was likewise facing a similar threat. The marriage between the two gave them both what they needed."

This is just qualifyid ******** from some amateur analys reportes.

Nokia has QT nokia did have Meego and Symbian!

Every ****ing internet media see it in an american perspective, seems nothing else matters.

But what about this funny thought: What if Intel will buy Nokia?

Buy Nokia, create a second division for MobileComputerPhones with MeeGo and kick the WP7 niche to where they come from.
I dont think Intel want to buy Nokia they very PISSED on Nokia butI must say it would be VERY FUNNY ROTFL :-D :-D :-D

Of course it will affect Nokia. It just remains to be seen how.

What we are seeing is the end of Android as we know it. Android is out of control and Google want to control it like Apple does. ZTE and Huawei and other chinese manufacturers will go their own ways, do their own market places and leave Google with nothing. Samsung want to get out of Android over to WP and Bada. Who knows what HTC wants, and who cares anyway.
Always fun reading your analyse. Everytime someone saying anything bad about Nokia you stick your head in the sand and say lalalala.

Ofcourse tit can happen. Its very rude big bussiness.

It always happens. Latest swedish example saab outomobile raped by American and Asian companys now very soon dead.

Who would think that would happen for ten years ago?

And btw. who would think US and European would go down and the now economic growing countrys are Indian and Kina?

This is one of the reason the mobile industry is just pissing in theyr revirs. Its very big bussines. Some says its more money in mobile industry than medicine industry.

The rape of mobile companys will continue thats for sure.
