I've already said that. Elop is working for microsoft, not for nokia. he always talk about ecosystems. he never talk about smartphones. his goal is, he said, "windows ecosystem growing". no m. elop!! you're wrong!!! you're goal is to make nokia a success and the way to take was to divide your strategy: adopt android or windowsphone! not only one!

I say the short version and you elaborated, that was i thinking but the support aswell his own OS (symbian, maemo, meego, harmattan, whatever).

They should give options (OS) with the hardware (strong point of nokia) and let the consumer buy what they consider best for for they need (they could feed that needs with that plan).

The funny thing in Elop's plan is that there is no new, special and out of this world WP device he was "selling" to the consumer, shareholder, board, etc. Going by the old strategy, Nokia should be presenting N10 next month. What a mistake of nature this Elop dude really is.

My point is very simple, the shareholder(s) can't cry because they should know what the risk are (and should know all the reasons, "we" [you and i] didn't), and they deserve lose money.

To me this is funny and sad, because a lot of people see this coming (Nokia falling down, not going up with WP strategy), but what we know??? We are consumers, if they marketing us a pink elephant as the super duper last thing, we probably buy it, right?

I totally understand what you mean and trust me, we are on the same page but saying different.

Ah fair enough, I take back my comprehension comments since reading more of your posts I don't think English is your first language, so that was completely unfair.
For some reason I wrongly thought I smelt blind patriot LumiaLemmingman type garbage in your post, one of those ******s spouting propaganda in this forum is plenty.

Yes is not my first language, i don't even bother about the comprehension comments, i try to be sarcastic in some of my comments and not always do it right i guess (but i'll keep trying).

I have to point out two recent posts from another some what related thread, it took a while to track them down but reading this thread the first thing I thought of was this guys comments.

Must read! Tomi Ahonen roasts Elop's decisions

When quizzed on what he based this comment on.....

When any senior executive for a large company is "on the ropes", the company I work for flag it immediately. One Chairman is already leaving which was reported already but the CEO position is being looked into so there's definitely more to it than just rumour.
That guys experience at his work is interesting to say the least when you think about this latest round of news eh.
I can't help but ponder how related this lawsuit is with that little factoid.

Dude I wish I could hit the thank you button 1000 times. Seriosuly mistake of nature is the best description of failop I've ever red. The guy not only destroyed in record time the biggest cell phone company but he also screwed the last chance we had for a competitive open platform on our cellphones(please don't quote this and say android is open a pony will die if you do) and moved us one step closer to a market like the desktop market where one company has everyone by the balls and does as it pleases.

Thank you Stephen Elop thank you. I hope Ballmer does something horrible to you when his win phails go down the toilet

Haha he already is doing something horrible to Elop, but what goes on in the bedroom, stays in the bedroom.
