Which one is more likely?

I believe Nokia and MS is doing the right thing, and I think they will succeed. It makes perfect sense, and they have the brute force to pull it through if necessary, which I doubt they need to do. What all you are saying makes no sense, and it makes no sense because it is only paranoid bull with no root in reality. You are also overplaying the whole deal. The deal is not much different than the deal Nokia had with Symbian, only with Symbian Nokia had much stronger obligations. The deal with Symbian was much tighter than the deal with Microsoft.

Btw, US market is not interested in Sea Ray, they are interested in the N9 and MeeGo. Last time I heard, WP7 sales suck even in their home turf. Read up a bit more and stop putting all that trust in the WP7 deal since you bought NOK shares and the price went up 1$/share. I suggest you sell now before it gets down to 2/share unless Nokia sells the N9 in more markets ASAP.

the only reason why the N9 won't sell big in the states is because Flop decided it wouldn't be sold there.
that's easy to foresee.
i really don't understand why the same hardware, which is hardly more then a iPhone without button on the face should do any better with a software that is getting less and less popular every day.
mind elaborating?

I really do see the relation and Microsft way of business. Microsoft is having a lovely laugh during smoke break, "let's pull an ELOP on Samsung." And so that's what they did, royalty payment, here we come...
