Remember two things about Elop people:

1. The goal, as Elop told a group of engineers in Berlin on Feb. 29, is once again to “find that next big thing that blows away Apple, Android, and everything we’re doing with Microsoft right now and make it irrelevant—all of it. So go for it, without having to worry about saving Nokia’s rear end in the next 12 months. I’ve taken off the handcuffs.”

2. He was shocked about all the unused technology and software hidden in the research labs that wasn’t used yet in a consumer device.
