Not a trivial transition, but the existence of the n900 an n9 proved that it could be done. And then the Microsoft trojan arrived...
I think what happened is that the Board said to the NOKIA leadership: you guys cant deliver, you are too slow, the transitions and products are not competitive, something needs to be done ASAP. Samsung already made a transition and we are stuck with dinosaur platforms. And we need someone outside of these stale hallways to shake things up. Hence Elop.
