May be he should join BlackBerry. The OS is doing better with every iteration now. Time to crash it may be.

Nay, too early. I want to get hands on some of the more innovative hardware from them... Not the phones themselves, just parts.

anybody else remember the article that detailed exactly what happened in the closing years of Nokia? It was written by an ex Nokia employee with input from many.

Mmm... but let's not forget MeeGo was not NOKIA's primary platform.

With regards to Elop I'd like to show him how much I appreciate everything he did for NOKIA... by stamping on his bollocks.

And Harlow is out too

Always came across as utterly clueless to me. Every time she ended up getting promoted/moved in Nokia you just knew that division was heading for disaster.

Elop is too young to get retired, and too convinced that he was a good manager to get out of the scene for good so...
I'm afraid we're going to hear more about him, in his quest for sucking the bloose and the soul of some other company.

On the positive side, good on old "new" Microsoft, clearing the higher ranks from Ballmer's era honchos.

Elop allways falls upwards. He does it so well that we can conclude that Newton was wrong.

Wonder what his next job wil be after this failure. Prez of USA 2016?

I dont think elop is very skilled...the ones that hire him...not so skilled. I think elop got to much crap...when nokia had to much issues long before...
