I'm spreading the rumor that Flope said: "I, for one, look forward to you all serving your new American overlords." He finished it by joining Steve Balmer in several minutes of evil cackling interrupted occasionally by swigs of rum from a bottle they shared onstage in front of an attending audience of the remaining Nokia employees.

Nokia killed themself when the decided to replace olli with Elop. Microsoft and Apple are just doing what they are supposed to do - targeting, positioning and segmenting their products, and successfully so far.

Excellent perspective. I hope we see a bounty of interesting new projects and companies from ex-Nokia employees.
