Why you think they launch Asha's in the first place? Look at the Asha 311, it's a popular phone which sells pretty good. Nokia is exactly doing what the customer wants.

                              The only solution you have is Android OS.

                                    okey, now we have "Asha platform". Next step for right direction is to make that platform for Nokia high end devices.

                                    Asha 501 looks like Meego and people love it.

                                        $99 BEFORE taxes??? They must be joking. For that price, I can get an entry level Android, entry level and yet better than this Asha 501 (I can get 320x480 resolution instead of this pathetic 240x320 and 3,2-3,5'' screen instead of 3''), 512MB of ram and access to the whole Play store.
