Third of all where it was ever said that MS is to split royalty income with Nokia? Since when is google asking royalties for android????

They changed nothing so far. Nokia software engineering can't match MS

Yeah who could ever match wanders of software engineering like win me, netbios, all win server editions, the win 8 costumer preview, wlm I could write more but I don't want to spend the rest of my life counting MS failures.

Yes, Nokia can extend WP on the OS-level. E.g. they implemented NFC support for the Lumia 600 series this way (since WP 7.5 does not support NFC at all). And I assume the PureView technology will also need OS modifications by Nokia.

Check this out:


Smaller, then; leaner, and more responsive. Losing weight isn’t easy, and there’s a lot of sweat shed along the way. Elop’s fitness regime may leave shareholders breathless and fans uncomfortable, but it’s one that’s essential if Nokia is to get in shape with the mobile industry of today.

NITdroid can't make phone calls still, right?

What's the use of a mobile OS that doesn't make calls?

Then that makes it a toy. I would rather not make my phone into a toy... I actually use it for business.

I don't think you quite understand what I'm saying.

What you're describing would be two devices. I miss a phone call, that's a loss for me. That's why I have a handset and a tablet. I hack the heck out of my tablet; rarely do the same on my phone.

We differ there. Let's just agree there. I purchase a phone for some tweaking, but honestly, I require stability.

il keep this short and straight forward I really dont want to go on my computer right now.

1.its hard to tell because they would not tell you until the product is done and dusted. From the top of my head an example that was given was imaging.because nokia is market leaders in mobile imaging.

2.no, wp is a platform.(nokia is not changing the whole of windows phone, justwhere are good TX etc.) The ip belongs to nokia, eg, google used alot of Ip that motorola owned. By buying them they can avoid legal action. You have to pay someone for the use of their IP/PATENTS or else you get sued.
> it's a no
3. Press release. (example in point 2)

4. Android is not free, its open source. How do you think google makes money apart from advertising?. OEMS use android commercially, nor for personal use. Google charges for using its services "COMMERCIALLY" not private use. This is why the new ipad--in iphoto does not use google maps.
