PureView is just a camera technology you can't sell phones just on that, it would be a killer feature to an already well established smartphone like the iPhone or the Galaxy but no one is going to by a new coming phone just for Pureview.

Right?
[Sales t]hat's the important deciding factor right now.

And I still am not under the impression that the N9 sold over 2 million - those are Samsung Galaxy S levels and we heard when they did that in so many different press releases. Nokia - under Elop - has tampered the hype and numbers surrounding the N9; the executive board allowed that too at the detriment of Nokia as a whole.

WP7 lovers... you're also asking for patience for WP8. Elop's had more than a year, this turn of events are seriously bad for Nokia, nothing is looking good for them. They sold 1 million Lumia 900's you say? They used to sell 5 million N95's at their heyday, more than that on other devices.

I don't know what your expectations are but have you tried using WP7 beyond the superficial menu scrolling operation? Apps take their time to load and multitasking is a pain.
I know that's the politically correct thing to say here, but the N9 is not the best thing Nokia has going. The N9 is good looking, but it is slow and unresponsive, annoyingly unresponsive way too often. Swipe is a nice idea, but in practice it needs lots of improvements to be really good. A blend of swipe and Belle could be a nice thing.

Untrue for the most part. N9 has much lag in MANY places. Way more than WP7...and I've tried QUITE a few and it takes longer to open apps as well. Have you even used a WP7 phone???
It is much more responsive and consistently so (much more than n9 at least).....but that is not the issue really....it's capability of the platform.
WP7 is just not as capable, end of story
Please state facts, and don't let your blind hate spread fud.

That's my current problem. It's not to say that what he says doesn't have merit; but until those numbers come from Nokia - or even from their quarterly reports - then I have to err on the side of caution and say that I cannot fully trust those numbers.
Not fully. But thanks for pointing that out.

Symbian is at free fall as android would be at free fall if Larry Page had announced he would be dropping android for win phail. Android or any other OS at the moment can't support pureview Nokia themselves said that a win phail with pureview will come in mid 2013
