This is something worth thinking about, I agree When Elop joined Nokia there was a freeze on his shares beforehand, maybe this could be an early indicator if he does get the job? (if the details are published somewhere?) I would also be interested to know the details of the MS/Nokia partnership too... It will never happen I know, but if there has been a clause where Nokia should remain with WP as a primary OS for a certain time frame, then he would not need to worry about how long nokia remain selling WP for? As with most people, I would be happy to see Flop back in his Redmond cage where he belongs. And hey, who would not see the benefit of moving from one company that has 3percent of its market share to the company that has the dominance of Microsoft (with the pay check) and be able to nip home at the weekends? There have been attempts at throwings the old anti-trust flannel at elops stance with nokia too (IIRC) but these deminished quickly. Kinda makes you think that the MS/Nokia partnership is Helium tight
