Over the past year, I've read a number of articles relating different insider tales of innovation squashed by inter-division empire building and fear of change at Nokia. That old refrain here, "it's hard to turn a ship as large as Nokia", only conveys part of the problem if a sizable chunk of the company is rowing as hard as they can back toward the old, straight course to insignificance.
I hope Elop manages to bring back Anssi, in some way... because he was one of the few guys that "got it".

I hope that the changes Elop make do not turn Nokia away from the "Connecting People" way of doing things they have to the "Connecting Rich People in the West" other companies have (like Tomi Ahonen once wrote).

Their paradigm of connecting everyone, everywhere; their initiatives to bring some connectivity advantages in the third world; their view that function is at least equally important as form; are assets on themselves, and one of the reasons they have admirers (me included). It would be a pity that Nokia loses that.

And about 300 billion in Meego AND QT? My guess is QT is the biggest on those two...
there is going to miles more money spent on symbian when there is many many phones running on it which all need testing, each device as over 50 variants of firmware what all have to be tested and signed off, and most symbian devices are maintained very well by Nokia with updates coming for over two year old devices in some cases.
MeeGo as precisely 0 devices to publicly maintain as of now.
