Well it is no secret Nokia is the world's largest cellphones worldwide, however Nokia has been on a decline since 2008 due to competition from Asian cellphone manufacturers such as Samsung, HTC, LG, and Huawei and rival smartphone platfroms such as Android, Blackberry, and iOs. So if you haven't heard Nokia has a new ceo New Nokia CEO
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.
OK I'm reposting with a poll.

Misspelled usual.

sorry about that.

Nokia has a new face, but its heading in the same direction.

And consequently, it will arrive in the same position its in today.
People that want new-gen phones will iPhone, Android, Windows Phone 7 (in that order).
Corporate-Aholes will stick to their Blackberry's.
HP will release a great WebOS-iPaq-phone, but it will suffer in the same swells Palm did, too much better competition!
Symbian will be in abundance in cheap phones, and this wont change.
Symbian smartphones will become epic failures.
MeeGo will only attract the niche, a la nerds.

That is the prognosis of the near future.
In the long-er term, who knows. But for now, in the smartphone business it looks like: Apple will stay quite dominant, Android will stay quite dominant, WP7 will have some share roughly equal to BlackBerry. The small percentage left will be ravaged by HP (WebOS), MeeGo and SYMBIANv4.

Things look bleak...

Interesting that no one has chosen the "new life for nokia" option yet...
