    Nokia should have stayed with meego, or opted for android instead. Windows phone is not gaining any traction. Few apps and games available too and developers aren't switching. Nokia should have kicked Elop 2 years ago.

      This wouldn't have happened if they had just released their new phones sooner. Nokia is just repeating what they did during the pureview 808 times. They put on so much hype first, make the customers wait for too long and then release the phones when the hype cools down.

      Nokia should learn how to strike the iron while it's hot. And a good start would be to sack that stupid Elop first before its too late.

            Febuary 11th will always be the day that will Haunt Mr Elop an Nokia after he announced "Symbian is Dead" an ever since that day Nokia have been on a Status Quo"Down Down Deeper an Down" in the Smartphone Market,How did Nokia ever chose Mr Elop seems somewhat odd after been running o.k,but Mr Elop convinced the Nokia Board he knew someone who wanted some help an would invest an save Nokia,Mr Elops old Employees Microsoft as there name was not as Succesful as Apple in the Computer an Smartphone Market as Microsoft thought they were as Good as Apple,but the Windows phones have just shown that Nokia an Microsoft have got there Strategy wrong,Nokia use to produce phones with micro sd card slots an Bluetooth Sending an Recieving,but with Windows Nokia copied the iPhones an removed the Best Functions that people liked an Samsungs Android phones had micro sd card Slots an Bluetooth Sending an Recieving so alot of Nokia Symbian phones users switched to Samsungs Android phones,an now Nokia an Mr Elop are on a Downward trend,but i bet Microsoft will step in a Save Nokia,Mr Elops plan will then be succeded helping is old employees out

                      The WP8 launch just couldn't come soon enough for the Finns, which are now facing a do or die situation..... That pretty sums it up.

                          The more I think the more I get convinced that android is NOT good for Nokia. With WP8 round the corner they MS and Nokia are well placed in the enterprise segment given that BB is having tough time. Sooner Surface pro outs, it would create whole new ecosystem based upon W8/WP8. Nokia will surely be the front-runner. It will encourage consumers to adventure out of a nonmoving iOS and malware friendly Android space.

                          Having said that, Nokia must get serious about Belle. Go back to the drawing board, bring about a nextgen Symbian. Shades of brilliance of Belle should be taken into account and work on limitations of Symbian platform and bring a whole new OS based upon older platform. Something similar like transition from S60 to S^3. Keep the prices at mid android segment and you have a winner at your hands.


                          Great future ahead for Nokia.

I would squander all my cash to get such a super smart phone... unfortunately, Nokia is stuck with their viewpoint and that’s why nothing can prevent them from disappearing down in near future… however, Lumia 920 may perhaps lay bare to be a comeback for a true leader mobile phone company… let’s hope!!! Otherwise, Samsung will eat ‘em up…

                                situation looks grim, but
                                wp8 seems to be a good product and people are talking about it
                                nokia is still far far away from bankrupcy

                                in the end, what happens happens. no money from my pocket
                                it would just be a shame because mobiles today are sooo boring and nokia always brings something innovative and mad to the market

                                  I am pretty much sure that if Nokia could have opted for Android instead of window os. The situations were entirely different. N possibly they could have managed the number one spot in smartphone area. Still I recommend Nokia to opt android as their OS n they definitely they'll get back into the game . Hopeful to see Nokia with android, unmatched combination
