At MWC, Elop was asked this very question. Whether the billions of dollar 'transfer of value' from MS to Nokia is a 'net benefit' or is that a lump sum that will still be reduced by other factors. Elop said that 'the net benefit will be in the billions'. .
6:44PM "When you look at all of the value that we're contributing, the value transferred to Nokia is measured in the Bs, not the Ms." That's billions, not millions, folks.
