Nokia is Nostalgic, and conservative this is what i have been trying to explain, But i am not very good at Explaining things, Blame the Msn and blackberry.

Fragmentation is not a problem IMO the most successful OS on the planet has been so successful due to fragmentation and that is windows. You can have windows XP on a shitty PC or Win 7 on a brand new, no problemo Microsoft encourages fragmentation by supporting XP until 2015, thats 14 years. Even if it was a problem fragmentation is not caused by Google but by the manufacturers which means that Nokia could make as many android phones they wanted and give them as many updates as the wanted new android versions are popping out every 6-7 months.


And you mentioned that being able to change the core of WP(their ability to do that has not been proven yet and remains just elops words which at this point aren't really trustworthy) is a plus for Nokia. So Nokia engineers work on WP to make it better and spends RD money on it so Samsung and HTC can get it for free. That seems like a lovely deal.
