Nokia has the ecosystem, or shall I say had it:

MeeGo + Symbian + s40 + Qt + Ovi Services (store, maps, mail, etc)

Nokia's base is much higher than Microsoft's. Plus they already have two market disrupting devices that can be launched, N9 and N950 (WP7 is not ready nor disruptive, it's a common failure among Android, iOS, Symbian, MeeGo). What the hell happened with the management in Nokia?
