That's exactly right! Elop doesn't own Nokia and he has a Board of Directors to report to.

As someone else just said, it does appear that Elop maybe trying to sabotage the Nokia-MeeGo effort and bolster the MS-Nokia alliance. It wouldn't surprise me if he was, as these 'corporate' types can and do play dirty to promote their agendas.

Also, considering the amount of money that's involved in the Nokia-MS deal, and I'm sure that Elop was one of the chief negotiators, he's got to make himself look as if he can deliver. What better way to do that then effectively kill Nokia-MeeGo?
