1) Rebranding

You now have no handset partner. What do you do?

2) Approach the biggest you can, Samsung

Samsung negotiate to include aspects of thier linux mobile OS LiMo. Qt becomes something that does not benefit Samsung or Intel directly so it's not compulsory but is not closed to it.

3) Tizen is born
so where was Intels handset HW again!? remember there is two sides of this mess. Bussiness as usual. Intel is NOT a good guy in this mess... Both company failed from day one...
