I too say screw android. They might as well continue with WP. We wanted Nokia to offer a reliable alternative not become MS or googles whore(even though I would understand moving towards the second). But what is scary is that even now there are no articles with "rumors of Elop chair being unsafe" or "Nokia rethinking their strategy" I mean after this colossal failure and it;s been more than a year now there should have been someone at the board thinking about throwing failop out of the window and leaking some info to the press. But there's nothing which makes me think that they either have accepted that their going down or they know that even of they go down MS will come and buy them.

He's sold Symbian to a "marketing company"? and chances are he's had everything else recycled and put into his WP7 baby.
One minute WP7 is Nokia's future, the next it isn't. Given the signals and hints he's given over the past 6 months, he can't make his damn mind up on what the future is.
Seems to me he knows he's dropped the big one and he's pacing up and down saying "What am I gonna do What am I gonna do?"

Paying someone a dime to lose a dollar is hardly doing them a favor... And remember, with that one big payout, Microsoft got their clammy hands on all of Nokias patents! That alone should be worth atleast that sum.

I don't really call that a "new" OS.
Well actually Nokia could/can use "android" who says it has to be Google version of the OS. For example look at what Amazon did with the Kindle Fire they did a code rewrite made it look nothing like Google version, its more focused on consumers...
On a similar note, if the browser in Android can be any measure for Android's OS quality - Android is doomed. In Android 4.x the browser is so bad, it makes baby seals cry. Don't get me started on all the bugs and "features", they are getting for the worse with every release
Not that the Harmattan browser is better, but at least they are not inventing broken things to cover other broken things. And Qt is killer feature for development (though I would prefer styling to not be restricted to QML only).

@bundyo its a £200 tablet, what you expect it to be fast as lighting. The ugly UI is a matter of opinion different people like different looks, its not all about version numbers, btw its a successful "android tablet" that dosen't have to pay for Google services.
i was mainly talking about a different strategy that could be adopted if nokia was more agile and if it still had maintained its other services to prevent it from collapsing in on it self and become a blackhole is the mobile industry.

Didn't Nokia give 2000 patents to mosaid so they can patent troll for Microsoft?
http://www.nokiaphones.net/2000-noki...nadian-mosaid/
And I seem to remember Barnes and Noble describing exactly what Elop the MS Trojan horse is doing somewhere in a legal .......wait here it is, I just found it, yeah this.
http://www.groklaw.net/article.php?s...11111122291296
I remember reading that before but it is very detailed so if you want a more easy to understand summary of it try this

Elop is a Microsoft trojan horse plain and simple. He is to destroy or render irrelevant any other OS Nokia has and Kamikaze itself for Microhard
