Well yeah the merger is now possible, but only when the very non Microsoft, NSN(over 60 000 people working from Nokia in NSN, 1/2 of Nokia's workforce) will be listed separate from Nokia, like talked for some time already.
For now it's still far from merger, but in a future i can actually see it possible while not likely.

This so-called N950 might be nice and pretty, but spending a ton of cash on something that you know will have ZERO support from Nokrosoft is crazy. Or maybe Nokrosoft are smart: they want to release it, dump it, so that people on this forum have something new to complain about for the next 1 to 2 years

It would be very funny if they finally launch a MeeGo device before a Windows Phone one.
And WP7 is not suitable for high end devices, because it is not thread safe and cannot be run on dual-core platforms.
So, yes it will be kind of funny, but also should be embarrassing to Elop. Of course Elop may want to sabotage Meego-development further to make sure it won't be ready until and of 2012 and then he has excuse to cancel it altogether.

All I'm interested in now is an official announcement from Nokia concerning the N950...but with the new CEO...feels like I'm gonna wait quite a while.

It won't (hopefully) take as long as WP8 is to be waited, till end of the 2012.
