Once android hardware gets into the cheap £50 segment which Nokia dominates Nokia's sales are going to go lower and lower and they need to find a way to gather sales from where ever they can.
Brian Modoff from Deutsche Bank Equity Research By 2013, we expect 1 GHz smartphones to be available for $100. The combination of a $0 license for Android and the steady march of Moore’s Law could translate into $100 smartphones by late 2012 or early 2013. At that point, we think even the average emerging markets’ consumer shift their purchase sharply away from feature phones to smartphones, posing a serious challenge to companies such as Nokia without a clear strategy for low-end operating systems.
