Light of a situation: How Could Nokia Fail More
 
So most of the community is absolutely devostated by the current whole WP7 change Nokia may be implementing and the very possible death of one of the most amazing mobile operating environments.

So I thought lets atleast try and have a laugh here. What do you think is the biggest fail device they could release? (other than trying to run WP7 on the N97)

I think a Windows Phone 7 Tablet would be an epic fail. Imagine that horrible OS on a 7 or 10 inch screen!

I honestly believe that choosing Android instead of WP7 would be the über fail for Nokia in this situation. WP7 is bad enough considering the alternatives they have (or had?) in house, but at least it's an OS that nobody else seems to want (probably for a reason). So at least they have a chance to make it "their" OS, very much like Symbian is now considered a Nokia OS (which it never was).

Android is just too big now. Making an Android device is about as exciting as any laptop vendor launching a new model that runs windows.

They have already peaked at the inextricable zenith of fail.

I wouldnt be so confident. When Nokia realizes that it reached the absolute bottom will start buying shovels.

Why didn't Nokia spread the risks: go with WP7, Android, continue with Meego and Symbian.

Other mobile-manufacturers can do it with less resources.

This way they've had all the cards in hand, some of them must've been the winning card.
