        ms buying nokia, 02 Nov 2012i used wp aswell as win mobile so i think i know the situat... moreYou say windows phone is unusable for work.. but you're not providing any reasons as to why you say that.

        Firstly i want you to remind yourself of how people once said that about apple, and bb's were the biggest work-related phones. Now apple is being used by business and workers all over the world. Windows will dominate because of its compatibility with windows computers, tablets, and accessories.

        also, not to mention, that windows is hands down the MOST advanced operating system out to date for mobile devices. Windows has done a SIGNIFICANT job of providing users with the features they asked for compared to the last version.

        The next version is giong to be even closer to satisfying users. within the next 2 updates, windows will be AHEAD of all other operating systems when it comes to features.

        this is the windows 8 take over..
        hail microsoft...

          What Nokia should do is what Amazon have done with their Kindle Fire. Take the Android OS and heavily modify it so it becaomes almost like a new Nokia OS resembling Symbian. Plus all the benefits and compatability of Android. I use a Lumia 710. Too many restrictions.

                Andriod devices are designed for
                -- short live....so they can sell new
                -- focused on manufacturer profit
                -- nothing for user...just customizable interface....for time wasting

                        Now I am starting to believe that Nokia's decline / demise is very well planned.

                        See... Symbian did not compete in rapidly changing market while I could, very well. Then Fin CEO departed. Elop eloped from Microsoft and joined Nokia (the first nonFin CEO). Maemo was great but dumped. Meego was great but dumped. Symbian was dumped. All bet made on Microsoft's WP8 dumping everything else. And now even having agreement with 4 OEMs, we get the news that MS is planning own handset.

                        Other 3 OEMs are building non-wp8 phones already. So who is the looser in the end.

                        I like Nokia too but think about it. The downfall is planned. Who planned it? A little attention

                          JAZZ, 02 Nov 2012you're wrong, nokia's biggest mistake wasn't to join forces... morei only agree about meego with u. but nokia didnt decide that, ms did because trust me wp wouldnt have a chance against meego. :)

                                    Zakria Bugti, 02 Nov 2012I agree, nokia made big mistake to join microsoft. but stil... morethe only ones that say nokia should go to android are the ones that have NEVER used or owned an Windows phone.

                                    Use windows then talk. you'll realise who stupid android is compared to windows. Android is a joke compared to wat microsoft managed to do in 1.5 yrs.

                                    they say, to be more than average you have to seperate yourself from the masses. Guess wat? android is now average... nothing extraordinary. And what do you think Nokia is trying to do? Be more than average.

                                    Hail microsoft.

                                      Vision. It's what you haven't got.
