People are running away from Nokia because Nokia has been busy doing nothing but create devices that nobody really desires. This is not Elop's fault, but the fault of the people that hired him. It's getting really old that people keep blaming Elop for Nokia's mistakes.

Again, I know that as soon as the iPhone came out Nokia executives were in panic. Big panic, as they had nothing in their portfolio. They came over here cowering in fear, 2007. They brought Elop for a simple reason: they knew that sales were falling across board as Androids and iPhones expanded. The board knew it before anyone as they have data that is not available to regular folks.
If NOKIA really foresaw a problem with Symbian why didn't they focus more of their efforts on Maemo?

Stop blaming Elop for troubles that began way before his time. Symbian was out of the game.....it was just a matter of time before it disappeared. And that is all to it. Symbian was good when competition sucked, and it couldn't evolve when androids and iPhones came out.

Symbian is dead. Accept it. The world accepted it and moved on, you should do it too.
NOKIA did not have to put all their eggs in one basket. That's especially stupid when you've already seen the one basket you've chosen to put all your eggs in is full of holes.
Samsung must absolutely love Elop.

I dont like Symbian and i dont like Windows Phone. Whatever it is, its the fault of the CEO. Someone said here that he is there since 2007? Well thats 5 years and what we have now is worse than before. (Except N900/N9 but they dont have support)
