I'm not feeling that "concessions" vibe, unless you mean some kind of wholesale "come to the dark side" garbage. There isn't a sense here of any real form of concessions or deal-making going on. It appears to be a complete change of corporate personality, not a give-and-take. Even if you were right and he simply couldn't state those facts as such publicly, what he IS stating in public is repeatedly undercutting Nokia's and his own image and competency. What I'm saying is that I think he might be clinically stupid, based on public statements. :P
