Nokia n9 gains early adopters and outsells the Nokia n95 and Nokia e71.

Nokia fixes there problem in the North America and Nokia's replace Android devices as carrier flagships.

Nokia n8 fails to meet sales expectations and loses millions of dollars in development and manufacturing costs.

MeeGo yet another failed Linux based platform.

Some things that could happen
- Nokia n8 sells by the millions and becomes the phone of choice for photographers.
- Symbian ^4 the best most elegant Symbian yet.
- Nokia C6 becomes the defacto smartphone of choice for first time smarthphone users.
- MeeGo a revolution for mobile computing.
- Nokia n9 gains early adopters and outsells the Nokia n95 and Nokie e71.
- Nokia fixes there problem in the North America and Nokia's replace Android devices as carrier flagships.
OR the flipside- Nokia n8 fails to meet sales expectations and loses millions of dollars in development and manufacturing costs.
- Symbian ^4 more of the same
- MeeGo yet another failed Linux based platform.
- Nokia fails to bring Nokia n9 to market
- Nokia fails to fix there problem in North America.
- In response to Nokia's problem in North America they make and end up being yet another Android phone manufacturer.
- Ovi the door closes.
- Due to past failures Nokia is acquired by Samsung, HTC, LG, or Huawei.
Or business as usual.Last edited by railroadmaster; 2010-09-11 at 17:52.
