MS-Nokia will be OK because they have the will and guts to do it. That is reason number one. The first WP was limited in too many ways to be attractive. The hardware-built on all the first WP phones were way below OK standard.
Windows Phone will only come into its own from Mango onwards, and Apollo will be the first opportunity to see any significant contribution from Nokia.
I don't know if Elop will prove to be a Trojan or not, but it is certainly too soon to call this either way.
If I had to inject some balance against all the Nokia/Elop haters I'd point out that if Elop is a Trojan for MS, surely it'd be easier, more credible, and less damaging to WP to bring Nokia to its knees by allowing it to continuing with Symbian and Meego instead of linking Nokia's now well-publicised struggles with Microsoft's new baby?
If MS buy out a Nokia that has publicly failed with WP, what will that say about WP as an OS/ecosystem? Who will buy it then?

The pure logic of the title of this thread is down to hatred and in life when you hate something it makes you blind to the real situation.

Did you see the amazing Apple profits for this quarter? Meego has no chance, hence MS-NOKIA alliance. I think that in many ways the war is over, but hope, and I put some money on it, that there is still some horse power left in the ole NOKIA
