I dunno, I am starting to have a feeling he's the guy who finally decided Symbian had too much cruft to go on (his own words!... Always great to hear engineering lingo on the mouth of an executive) And I'm not sure they could create a great Linux based product without making lots of decisions that would make us unhappy.

But yeah, that whiteboard story still sounds quite silly. But maybe there's is some truth to it. Anyway, I am still very much curious to know: how does WP7's whiteboard looks like?

Talking about SJ, I am loving Elop's stunt of always pulling some device from his pockets. This is very cool, and Jobs would neve do this kind of thing! I definitely relate more to a guy who has lots of different phones on his pockets. That speaks diversity, something Apple doesn't favor much.
