Over at AAS at least some people are thinking instead of crying like babies day after day after day after day because Elop has dropped their little toy.

Of course proprietary ecosystems will lock consumers into proprietary solutions, that goes without saying. But MS/Nokia will be much more open than Apple and much less intrusive to your privacy than Google. Besides, both Nokia and MS earns heaps of money from the other ecosystems.

Trust me, Nokia/MS will be great The news today regarding patents removed every little bit of doubt. There is no way Nokia/MS will fail.
