Apple's marketshare has fallen over the last twelve months as has their share price, they need to employ Elop to save them before it's too late.

For now Apple can continue to sell their Taliban phones to the ignorant uneducated underclasses of the UK and USA but they can't release beta devices like that and expect to compete with Google's big boy in more discerning markets.

I think people get you. The fool of the court, full of follies and colorful stories. Sorry for Symbian bud. It had to go.

That's actually a good example. Symbian is dead and it is easy to call it a failure until you realize for how long it had ruled and compare it to curent rulers.

Sorry, but WP is not one of them. Although it has been around for long enough to start ruling. If only it had the potential.

I really dont care who rules or doesnt. I currently like WP8. Suits my dependance on reliable email, calendar and i can open any document with ease, plus use great NOKIA hardware. I am sure the future will see much change in the current line up.

But lets go back to WP for a sec. Its taking them billions of dollars and more to have small market share. You need deep pockets in this game. Jolla doesnt have it.

Deep pockets if you go the traditional route. What if somebody comes in and introduces something different?

About the same difference(s) as I see in Windows Phone.

So you say.

But that's enough to garner 3% of the total smartphone market in Microsoft's case to continue on. That's quite a haul for a smaller company if that happens for Jolla.

Again, think in terms applicable to Jolla. They don't have to sell as many iPhones as Apple to be considered a success.

That' because WP8 is a stinking turd.

They don't have the stinking turd issue either.
