              Amazing how many people here don't understand Microsoft haven't killed Nokia, they simply bought the company properties and the employees are moving to Microsoft. What's the big deal? This is just a step further from the way Nokia was all-in WP...

                  Sad news.

                  I use to looooove the Nokia mobiles prior to Windows Mobile becoming their flagship OS of choice.

                  Shame.. Now I'll definitely never own another one.

                  RIP Nokia.

But don't hate MS, I use Windows 7 for my daily tasks and job. MS acquired Skype and no affect on how I can chat and talk to my clients and friends as before, when it don't affect your productivity and life you shouldn't hate anything :)

                                That is stealing. That is what americans do everywhere.

                                The shareholders of Nokia shall sue them. Nokia had a value of at least 30 billion before Elop.
