Don't know if I should laugh or cry. :P

It's best to laugh until the tears pour down.

For all those trashing WP7... whatever you think about WP7 without actually having used it... that's only half as bad as what the rest of the world thinks about MeeGo, without being able to use it. You know all those articles trashing Nokia that everyone hates? That's the same as what you're writing right now. Microsoft actually upgraded their aging OS to a new version... how's the Maemo to MeeGo transformation going, even with MeeGo being a whole lot of Moblin underneath? Help from Microsoft can't make things worse for Nokia, only better. They haven't imploded the company! They've actually gained a working OS that's being brought up to speed at a very quick rate. How is that a bad thing? They went with the partner that will give them major input on shaping how the OS works, which they would not have been able to get from Google. How is that a bad thing? Other companies put WP7 on their phones and no one screamed that companies like HTC or Dell were going to go out of business as a result. Why is this going to kill Nokia? Seriously... it would be nice if someone predicting the end of Nokia would explain why this is so bad. Please keep in mind that almost no one outside this website knows who or what a MeeGo is or uses Linux or knows what root means in a computer sense when forumulating your explanations. Also please note that the zillion iPhone users show that phone buyers don't view software as politics or ideology. Thanks.
It's bad because if you just bought a Symbian device you just got kicked in the nuts. The E71 was only released last week for heavens sake.

i dont see any way out for nokia other than selling shares now before liquidation.
shame i was hoping for a meego device, with this strategy whats the point?
sorry elop, but its not burning, it has exploded. all that is left is rubble

at least my n900 will be good enough for a few months until i work out whether it is webos or android.
and thanks for the 800/810/900 nokia! great shame!
I believe another has already asked... if WP7 is a flop what was Maemo?
