Obviously, Microsoft wants Nokia to adopt Windows mobile: they have been courting them for years. Just as obviously, Nokia does not want Microsoft: they have been investing in Symbian for that very reason. It all started when Windows mobile was called Windows CE.


OOH, Windows mobile has largely failed to establish dominance in the western world and has been relegated to be a fourth player by the new iPhone. MS must be desperate. OTOH, Windows mobile based phones are big in China. Nokia could be tempted to compete on that market.
