Looks like Elop sold out Nokia to Microsoft. The latter needs a hardware department to match Apple and Google's cloud-mobile combos. The cost? Thousands of jobs lost as Elop and Gates laugh all the way to the bank.

Biggest mistake - partnering with Microsoft. Ask Samsung if their latest Omnia can beat their own Galaxy. If a well entrenched iOS with full range of apps is boxing with Android, what gives a new OS with few apps and no real innovation anti chance? WP is no different from Bada or BB - only with deeper pocket (slower death). Worse WM precursor to WP was a failure and people remember it as a laggy OS.

In order for Nokia to survive, they can:
1) switch to Android ICS 4.
2) reverse engineering for its Lumia with bigger display like 4.3" to 4.8" with super Amoled.
3) co-brand with Bose audio for internal speakers and head/ear phone.
4) co-brand with Carl Zeiss ot Leica for camera lens.
5) body with tatanium alloy and Grollila glass.
6) sell phone thru Nokia life style store like Apple store
7) launch 8 " and 10" Nokia tablet running on Android.

Yeah ,, their next billion plan what a foolish act. By they meet their next billion target. Company itself will be bankrupt. Damn sure. Look at how High Samsung has reached with Android. With such a good infrastructure a company like nokia can go even to the top end by giving what the smartphone world demand

2. picked ... moreThose mistakes pale in comparison to the biggest one of them all. A mistake that goes by the name of Stephen Elop.
10,000 people are now out of the job thanks to that Windoze Trojan Horse. They should have just fired HIM instead.

john , 14 Jun 2012WP7 limits all its phones to 480x800 resolution and single.... moreNokia should lay-off more top executives. These people are too much inefficient and talkative but getting extremely high pay. I worked with an ex-Nokia director (fired by Nokia) and he worked even slower than a 80-year-old man. Eventually he was fired by this small company too.

The phone RAM should be 256mb or higher for it to support flash and multitasking. And still you need zune. Thats even terrible than mango.
