I agree on Tomi. His numbers show up as reality every time.

I think that it could save Nokia if they continued with the Asha branding in low end, and in mid and high end released phones capable of running ALL operating systems.

One phone; Nokia Inside, where YOU decide if you want Windows , Android or Ubuntu. Forward support for Windows to Microsoft, Android support from Google, or buy that support service from whoever.

I might even consider such a thing! ...one of the better reasons why all my newest purchases have been Nexus devices with a clearly and intentionally unlockable bootloader.

Now all unlocking has to be done with special hardware hacks.
Well, then that makes it clear. Dump Microsoft as the odd one out and service up EVERYTHING ELSE. Because, you know... look at the evidence... EVERYTHING ELSE is succeeding far better than this fetid Microsoft offering.
