Its obvious when a New CEO comes in there would be change.
Find me a statement where he himself says Symbian and MeeGO are our Future there will be no change
He very clearly said (through Nokia corporate announcement) Symbian, MeeGo and Qt were IT in fall of 2010. Easy enough to find. Sure, he didn't state unequivocally that there would never be change, but making such a bold statement leads developers, vendors, etc to make necessary investments. Pulling the rug out from under such a significant strategy announcement a mere few months later undermines confidence in a company. You're seeing that in the stock now.

We can bandy semantics around all day, but in the end, what I'm saying is dead-on.
