"with 90 percent of current Windows Phone 7 customer saying they would recommend it to others" -- just wondering how many WP7 customers are there now?

90% of the 90% work for Microsoft or hold shares in Microsoft!!! (they did the survey outside the store opposite Microsofts head office)

How much of a WP7 handset would be selling at? The win o/s is NOT free; so that has to be factor into the price of the handset. Nokia exchanges the short up-front o/s development cost with a long-term never ending/ever increasing o/s cost. Nokia can have significant volumes of WP7 set made; but the issue is whether they could be sold at a profitable price.

How will a Nokia WP7 device differ from any other OEM? With Symbian and Maemo/MeeGo they offered something different and functional. Only complaints I ever heard about Symbian were in the media, Engadget, Gizmodo, Eldar, but mostly American media. Most my girlfriend love using Symbian. N8 has sold double the amount of all WP7 devices combined, and it's only one manufacturer. Why throw away all efforts, if Elop wanted to be efficient and please shareholders, he could have just slapped Maemo 5 on an OMAP 3630 with 512mb ram. The code is there and can suffice untill MeeGo is at a 100% state. I smell MS socks in Nokia HQ since Flop's arrival. Dumbest CEO ever, he should really be pleased of ruining a giant like Nokia.
