1. This guy has been jumping jobs between varios MNC. What it says is that he is in it for the money and solely money. We need people who are passionate about nokia. Look at texrat.. he is passionate and he works for the good of nokia.... no matter he is paid or not. Similarly there are many good guys in nokia who are extremely passionate about nokia and have a finnish background. For example.. Ansi, Ari, Peter & Qgil come to mind.

2. Also one of the most important factos i like about nokia is thier honesty and modesty. I believe this has something to with thier finnish background. Why get this north american ceo who i believe wont have these traits. I have yet to see any north american company have the same values of modesty and honesty similar to nokia.

3. I read somewhere this guy had a major part to play in the concept of microsoft kin. If that is anyway true... i am gutted. Even the hamster in the lab knew that the kin was going to bomb.... but still microsoft went through with it.

I do understand the importance of having him for increasing the market share in the US... for that he could have been made President of the NA arm of nokia or may be even better head of buisiness.... but the ceo has to be finnish.
Even if I agree with some of above: The stockholders and many people who buys phones doesnt care about it.

For the stockholders MONEY is the only intresting things atleast for the big players.

But if we in the OSS community , for example, want to Meego to succes we need to contribute! send bugreports and so on to make it clear for the new CEO that we want that OS in the future nokia phones!

If N9 fails with Meego they ma go for another crappyOS inststead (maybe win7)

So its not only the CEO that is decides Nokias future its the developers, buyers and Meego to succes.
