Hello Friends Here is the Link where NDTV INDIA had an exclusive interview with the Nokia top managment.... Please read for the Future of Nokia and Microsoft!
"As soon as we have something to announce, we will, but we expect significant volumes of Nokia Windows Phones in 2012."
How much of a WP7 handset would be selling at? The win o/s is NOT free; so that has to be factor into the price of the handset. Nokia exchanges the short up-front o/s development cost with a long-term never ending/ever increasing o/s cost. Nokia can have significant volumes of WP7 set made; but the issue is whether they could be sold at a profitable price.

How will a Nokia WP7 device differ from any other OEM? With Symbian and Maemo/MeeGo they offered something different and functional. Only complaints I ever heard about Symbian were in the media, Engadget, Gizmodo, Eldar, but mostly American media. Most my girlfriend love using Symbian. N8 has sold double the amount of all WP7 devices combined, and it's only one manufacturer. Why throw away all efforts, if Elop wanted to be efficient and please shareholders, he could have just slapped Maemo 5 on an OMAP 3630 with 512mb ram. The code is there and can suffice untill MeeGo is at a 100% state. I smell MS socks in Nokia HQ since Flop's arrival. Dumbest CEO ever, he should really be pleased of ruining a giant like Nokia.
