WHat is all the fuss about ????? all i want is a mobile device that does what i need it to do so if Nokia can achieve this through Microsoft then am sure a lot of people are going to be happy.
Android is going to dominate the mobile market whether the old Nokia comes back or whether there is a new Nokia. There is nothing Microsoft can do about it. This time it is up against a real tech giant and cannot use size and money to just crush the opposition.
Things have changed dramatically from when Microsoft went on to dominate the PC business.
Nokia would also have had their ecosystem on top of meego, only for Nokia users, and provide developer tools. They are not saints.
I am against this deal because its beneficial for MS but disastrous for Nokia in the long term. Except Elop has a good exit strategy, but I doubt it.
Of course he does. He will continue to buy more Microsoft shares. Then when he has succeeded in killing the Nokia brand and Nokia is taken over by Microsoft he will return to Microsoft with his shares having increased in value as a result of the take over. I would say he had the perfect exit strategy.

I think that Nokia did the best choice to overcome its crysis. People here can hate Microsoft, but maemo failed, as meego would probably fail and as Linux failed for pc's in the war against Windows.
Because the aim a big company like Nokia is not to make nice devices for purists, but to win the war being the first seller and making a lot of money. That's how things work in the global market.
Nokia thinks to money and not to dreams.
I will probably too switch to android phones because I don't like windows, but I admit that Nokia did the only possible choice to remain competitive. Meego couldn't save Nokia becouse it arrived too late.
