meego with alien dalvik is a very, very viable alternative: choppy screen redrawing of Android gone, much better battery life, android apps.

            Huge difference in hardware. If someone makes a WP8 app they can easily port it to W8 if it's the other way around lot of downgrade will be required To the app

              "if a nokia pureview with 40 mp and android will be presented, samsung can close the mobile division next day"
              I agree with that.

                It's about time. A well built device with high end hardware and Android should easily pull Nokia out of the disaster that it is in

                          its a good news, Nokia have a good hardware phone. i think all consumers want a phone with a good hardware and a raising stars software.
                          if its true go to androids which is a star in software curently. nokia will start again competition with other vendors.
