I think this is corporate speak for false hope to try not to drive away current developers and users. We keep hearing this line and the ******ed "future disruptions" line... Nothing that you develop in a *nix platform can be readily and easily moved to a Windows platform or the other way around. Not that it's not possible it's just hard and takes careful planning. And since MS's stuff is all silverlight/.net that makes it harder.

This is how I feel, they made a plan and sold it for 18+ months, gained their current user and developer base buy in then with no warning in 2 months time basically said nope not doing any of that consider that dead, now 180 and hey all that stuff you bought bought was crap anyway, thanks for your money. Buy our Windows Phone stuff it be better, oh and by the way their be more symbian in the mean time so give us more money for stuff we won't support by next year. Umm thanks nokia, but no thanks.

No just no future with nokia. The one thing about their meego device is that because of the nature of meego knowledgeable users can update it themselves to hold them over until another device comes out from a different manufacturer.
