AnonD-385420, 24 Apr 2015People only left Nokia after Mr Elop the so-called Chairman... moreNokia's downfall might have been accelerated by a Trojan horse scenario and then bought for less its worth. A true Nokia fan who jumped ship to Android...so it will be best of both worlds when Nokia becomes a powerhouse Android OEM. They will certainly be playing catch up for a couple of years to some of the already established mega Android OEMs, but if they focus and renounce huge bezels and incorporate top specs on their top devices...they will start winning back some of their old fans.

          I believe this news makes a lot of nokia fans like me very excited, although by now i am using an iphone 6, i still have a nokia phone (lumia 735) at least as a secondary phone. i always have a heart for nokia, maybe bcos it is my childhood phone.

                          Let's hope they have a proper physical qwerty offering in their range, something that will really make them stand out and possibly win back some business from others as well......
