Anyway, what I said was that WP will eventually take over for the N9 or Harmattan if you will.

It is getting a bit clearer now. UK, Ge, Esp, NL and possibly It will get he first batch of WP phones, codename Searay. The rest of Europe, S America, Russia and Asia will get the N9. This will happen within a month. Sometime during the first half of 2012, the new Nokia WP flagships will arrive world wide incl USA.

Within a month we will also see the 600, 700 and 701 with Belle. In 2-3 months Belle will be available for all Symbian^3 devices. The new camera monster, the 801, will come soon as well, with Belle.

Harmattan/MeeGo will go away, but Swipe will not. Swipe is here to stay, it's a question of how and where.
If I were to guess, it's probably because you were ambiguous enough to make it sound like WP7 was taking over the market generally or something like that--and he thought I was making a point. I'd tend to agree with that assessment but, in fact, I wasn't sure what you were explaining, since the numbers aren't showing WP7 taking anything over.

Ultimately, though, you're saying WP7 is supposed to take over the N9/Harmattan markets? I'm not sure how this translates, considering the N9 doesn't yet have a market (soon?)... and where it will be released, it's not really being replaced by WP7's--It's sold alongside. If you want to point out that it's going to outsell the N9's, I'd like to know where you got the numbers for EITHER sales so far. It would be interesting to watch as time goes on.
