The Nokia Lumia will introduce the era of Nokia being MSFT's *****, therefore the name is appropriate.
To be fair, there seem to be 50 synonyms for whore in spanish...

I don't see consumers taking to Nokia's WP7 phones in large numbers as there is really nothing to make them stand out from other WP7 phones by HTC, Samsung or LG. Having no front facing camera and only 16GB with no micro-SD slots are negatives. Then there's the UI of WP7 which is really very ugly.
Let's see if the N9 sells more than the
Lumina 710 & 800 crap.

I don't think Nokia will succeed with windows. I don't think Stephen Elop thinks it will succeed.
WP has too much flaws in the system. Screen resolution fixed at 800x480 when all other phones are above and some have more than doubled the pixel count compared to 800x480.
Windows may have a chance when windows 8 is out in mobiles

WP7 has many Apple-like restrictions like opaque file system, no Bluetooth file transfer, tied to Zune for file transfer and no micro-SD card slot. Users willing to put up with these restrictions probably figure they may as well go for iphone with its huge appstore.

If Microsoft thinks they're going to beat Apple by trying to be Apple, they better step up their game on the retail, services, and customer service areas.
People swear like Apple just came out with the iPhone and everyone just was like, "well, I never heard of Apple, but I want this iPhone". No Apple built their reputation and their customer base for years, through their iPod, iTunes, Mac lines, and Apple Stores.

Apple has an iconic image and almost cult-like following. But Microsoft's image is negative. Nobody wants Microsoft to dominate mobile phone os like it dominates PC os.

WP7 has no BT file transfer?
Then I read this:
http://windowsphone7community.uservo...-file-transfer
http://wmpoweruser.com/windows-phone...-but-not-much/
and others.
It's true, that's not included in WP7!
Bluetooth with WP7 seems to be a nightmare:
"WP7 suffering from bluetooth woes"
http://www.neowin.net/news/wp7-suffe...bluetooth-woes
Did not read anything, that they fixed this.

That also explains why that Microsoft executive said that MS expects Lumia to be really popular amongst female users. I can see 200 million or so spanish speaking females rushing to buy a phone with that name.
