Elop is more like a "rent-a-doomsday-device". With proven track record.

Not just X series but they are also killing S40 devices series. Seems like Nokia (Microsoft part) will solely focus on Lumia series.

There's other slightly more clued-up lurkers there who could prolly have done a better job, but he's fairly on the money.

Glad they're finally getting rid of that, looong overdue, tis just a shame X (even better would've been Meltemi or both) didn't come sooner, thanks to Symbian/S30/S40 religion @Nokia.

What do you mean doomsday? Elop cached in a big fat bonus for the Nokia purchase. It's all good.

18 months remaining for Nokia to come in smartphone bussiness again. I hope they will come back and will surprise everyone with a High end MeeGo phone.
