Re: Nokia + WP7 = love?
 

If the arcade gaming part of WP7 was highly linked to XBOX it would be interesting to get a WP7 phone. But so far the integration is kinda meh to me.

Yea? and I've heard that Apple is switching from iOS on the next iPhone to DOS 3.11...
No need for graphic accelerators anymore, just add "smartdrv.exe" to your autoexec.bat - Steve is re-inventing the retro phone.

Lol at the Zack Morris pic, but look at my entire post history please and see that I love Nokia and this community moreso than any other mobile hardware and os that has ever been out. All I say is this, do not be surprised when Nokia drops a win phone in the us smartphone market in the next year. I am not going to doubt my friend. Dont matter Im still rolling with MeeGo either way, but if I had to put money on it, Win on Nokia is gonna happen.

Even MS don't care about their home turf. winmo7 only does GSM at the moment.

Not the imaginary kind I hope ;)

Lol at that lame attempt at a snarky joke. Look at my post history bro, I have zero reason to fabricate.

maybe windows wants to get meego running and their "os" (read:customization) to win7 phones?

Re: Nokia + WP7 = love?
 

Lets be honst, Nokia are desparate to get back onto the world stage, if the board have given the guy permission then it just shows they are desparate. WP7 is being touted and more importantly being developed by someone else and Nokia are struggling to shift anything that catches the headlines like iphone and Android. They are also struggling with their own in house development and have been for a while. N8 was held back, Maemo is dead (From their point of view) Meego far from ready, their last few phones had serious issues and didn't sell, making bad headlines (N97 & mini) And Symbian 4 is where?

Everyone touts Meego as being their jesus OS, yet despite the people on this forum it hasn't survived the wild yet, it has survived a few techies and nerds, plenty of fanbois and little else. And it will have to have the same birth as Maemo, which means simple errors, badly thought out screens and miss most of the useful features for a few months.

So an American joins Nokia and he probably will be looking to shift more high end units. It is probably true he is thinking about it and it would make good business sense to discuss the options at least. But I also think Meego won't last the year because of the overheads of supporting a minority platform for as long as it takes to pick up support from Apple and Android developers. So short term WP7 will be the way forward as MS will do anything to get a high end phone maker on side because it has to claw back from Android.

Winmo was awful and bloated, but I prefer it for reliability and work because Maemo is pants. So maybe they want to push WP7 towards the business market, so they can grab land from RIM and blackberries and hope Meego can make gains into Android. Will be interesting to see.

Re: Nokia + WP7 = love?
 

Um, a phone based on Silverlight which requires minmum 1GHz to work is not bloated? WinMo was at least native.
