1) Launch Earlier (October 2011)
2) Cheaper (Undercut the iPhone by $150)
3) Differentiating Factor (SwipeUI with the Windows Capacitive keys becoming on-screen)
4) Two versions (small 3.7inch with 1600mAh) and (large 4.7inch with 1800mAh)
5) No software issues (battery drain, gps etc everything working perfectly)
6) Beefier Specs (1.5GHz Snapdragon, 700MB RAM, 64GB NAND)
7) Current Features (LTE, NFC, Carl Zeiss, Gyro, Barometre, GLONASS)
8) Display (WVGA with RGB-AMOLED ClearBlack)
[...]
here is how the world really looks...
1) three months earlier, WP was acknowledged a sunk platform (why bother?)
2) why? we want FAT margins too!
3) NOOOOOO WAY! everything has to look the same way, m$ way
4) you mean... the client versus the server? that's what we have two versions for, right?
5) we never have (software) issues! it is ALWAYS the fault of the manufacturer; especially when their products work perfectly with other software’s!
6) see previous point! those sloppy minions NEVER get it right, do they?
7) oooo, come on! let others bother with that! we just do things the old way, how we know how to do it
8) Yes, yes, very good point. display IS important, isn't it?
soooo sorry, the world is not UP to your standards

In fact, if I was Nokia and I was burning away my two strategic ecosystems for M$...in return I would use my 'ability' to customize my phone to beat the competitors (WP) and match the market standard (GSII/4S).

i know for sure, are you think its fair enough the price of single core with 2years old is almost same with newest chipset dualcore??, sorry just asking,
Also, do keep in mind that since Elop arrived at Nokia, his whole purpose was to drag away sales from the N9 and get as much money back as possible spent in R&D. There were 2 ready devices and only one released and Nokia was in drought for a year. Even with the high price, the phone experience positive reception, and is selling like a fat kid eating at McDonald's. Nobody gives a crap if it runs a 2 year old chipset if all is flawless and unique.

(my understanding was that decision to stop production of the N950 had been taken already in 2010 following problems with the keyboard mechanism, thus prior to Flopocalipse)

Even if there was an issue, it would be easier and cheaper to fix it than build a whole WP device from scratch.

I've never believed the slider issue (if indeed it even exists) was the real reason for not releasing the N950 as a mass-market device.
