Nokia hardware is great but software inferior, hence WP.

Dont know. All I know is that for a common man and woman, Lumia 800 is way better than what Nokia was offering up to now, at this moment. Whether it succeeds or not, I dont know either, but out of everything that Nokia had up its sleeves, WP 7 is the smoothest platform. Good luck to them, I wish they can be wealthy, healthy and throw few open freebies your way for you to hack.

The greater the breadth of functionality included in a device the better chance it has of catering for each individuals needs.

It's not uncommon to see reductions in gross margins going hand in hand with increased sales, when customers place larger orders they expect keener prices (remember NOKIA's customers are carriers and retailers not Joe Public).
Decreasing margins combined with rapidly decreasing sales is a much more ominous sign.
The hundreds of millions of people who continued to buy Symbian phones long after iPhone and Android hit the market prove you wrong. Symbian absolutely, categorically was competing. Sorry if you don't like it but it's patently, obviously true.

That interpretation of TA's blog says that because TA saw that Nokia lost market share before Elop killed Symbian, it can't possibly be that Elop is to blame for the total and utter collapse of sales in units after he killed it.
Right. I'm sure there's some logic in there somewhere. Only, it appears to be warped.
