I guess what can you expect from a former MS employee? So disappointing though, Nokia have just thrown away their individuality in the market and become a hardware developer.

How stupid can Elop be? He really think Nokia will get to number one by not having any distinguished features from other brands?

I think their best strategy all along would have been continue Symbian as they did, continue and develop Maemo for the high-end with a gradual shift to MeeGo once it was ready. That way they would never have been left with zero high-end phones on the market for all this time.
