The difference being that MS needed a big name partner to get WP7 going, and Nokia clearly needed some new direction with Symbian dropping marketshare. Yes we were all upset with the news but we can see why it happened. MS buying Nokia doesn't make sense though, for the reason explained in the last paragraph of my post above.
