    My first phone are Nokia Symbian,
    now I'm using
    android n i don't want to buy wp it's
    too many
    restriction n not simple like Symbian
    or Android.
    That's why i prefer Android, it's
    almost similar
    with Symbian.

      Nokia would be smart to use an android with their pureview camera technology, or even promise more meego powered smartphones for release,the n9 is still awesome by today's standards

          Nokia put itself in a comparison with Apple
          private devices with private firmware

          and i want to say something to Nokia : wake up, ur devices are shit and crap, ur software too!!, go for Android or Meego!!

          in Egypt Nokia failed and no one now use it's devices

          Android Invade Egypt and all the world, all people now using Android

          Even me (HTC Rhyme)

              I was Loyal to Nokia for Years until Mr Elop stepped in,an is Plan he had with Microsoft as Failed an i am so Glad it as,my last Nokia phone was the Nokia N8 but then not Nokia but Mr Elop thought of getting investment into Nokia by Microsoft,but Microsoft was not a Popular name like the name of Apple is,i did not like losing Aplications i had been use to for Years on Nokia phones,so this made me Switch to Android because All things i could do on my N8 i could do on the Samsung Galaxy S2,an it was not only me that made this Switch but loads of other people,but Mr Elop did not think about the Public but was more bothered about helping is Old Employees Microsoft succede in the Mobile an Computer Market like Apple succeded in Doing,"We Want Elop Out,We Want Elop Out"

                  Android is the answer to finding yourself in court as a defendant against Apple.

                        Nokia Should Be With Meego , It is the most popular phone in this website till now.

                        WP OS is not good enough yet, And WP 7.5 Wont get any updates to the next WP OS.

                                    In any case, fire Elop. Kick out WP. Bring back Meego.
