Assuming that all Nokia fans do rush out and buy up all Nokia WP phones and make it a "success". What do you think is more likely:

a) Elop announces that the deal with Microsoft is a resounding success and will build on it to make even more WP phones

or

b) Elop announces Nokia is making too much money on WP phones so now it will spend it on making a "FOSS disruption" phone.

Nokia's bad decision of the decade was NOT executing a full scale international patent war assault on the Cupertino Crew upon the release of the original iPhone in 2007. Patent war Armageddon should have come and gone taking with it Stevie Job's beloved iPhone and allowing for the release of the scientists that he still probably has locked in his basement.
