I don't think there's a single major shareholder in Nokia that would want Nokia to invest in phone making in any kind of meaningful way. Stock would take a nose dive if they did.

Siilasmaa also said that they could see return on manufacturing, but only if they had something disruptive in their hands. I don't think the group of people that were in Maemo project or now near bankrupt Jolla have shown capacity to create anything disruptive. Niche product "solving" something very small amount of people care.

Nokia probably has enough to digest with swallowing Alcatel-Lucent for the next 12 months anyways.

It took about seven years to handle the merger of network units of Nokia and Siemens to Nokia Networks so I would expect the same for Nokia-Alcatel-Lucent

i wasn't being quite serious, just trying to wind gerbick up about the BOD criticism he has made in the past (and which i agree with).

And i do think they would mess it up on a second go-round anyway, so i don't hold out any hopes for that scenario.

Yeah, read the ReviewJolla article, seem to be tiny shift towards giving slightly more information.

Also, last community meeting seemed to be a lot more forthcoming and constructive, so it is not all crash-and-burn lately.

Hope there will be good news soon and community and jolla can wiggle out of trouble
