Not a shot at nokia, microsoft or any of the Nokia OS's, but I predicted this roughly a year ago and many many short sighted nokia zealots attacked me because of the position I took, the long sighted vision I had.

Given I predicted this exact outcome I feel I'm allowed to gloat and yes rub it in your faces(you know who you are) so all hail the wise and all powerful Oz-.....err Slick!

I was exactly right about the smartphone market share drop AND Nokia making win7 phones. So I felt this needed it's own thread so the community could discuss how to best use my brilliance, my vision to improve this place. And who knows if things go well I might even feel motivated enough to share with Nokia a sound strategy to recover (I have one)

I'm like a super analyst or something

No, I was a year early and 4days too lazy to confirm it to all the naysayers

Afterall I have nothing to do today but Watch the celtics lose to Orlando and the packers lose to the Steelers.

Why Nokia Needs To Go It Alone
Nokia: The Case Against A Microsoft Phone 7 Licensing Deal
Why Windows Phone 7 can't save Nokia
Nokia Shouldn't Give Up And Switch To Windows Phone 7
Why Nokia should not sign up with Microsoft
Analyst suggests a Nokia-Microsoft suicide pact

IT IS HARD TO GUESS what exactly Adnaan Ahmad, a senior analyst at Berenberg Bank was smoking when he urged Nokia to jump into bed with Microsoft, but it's pretty likely sold by the ounce.

lol. that's from the last article

A recent slide on the Internet showed Nokia's massive R&D budget. It dwarfs Apple's. What the heck are these people working on, cold fusion? Hopefully, it's MeeGo.
that's from the pcmag.com one

Memory is very pliable... I'm making a prediction that your prediction was not as spot on as you thought it would be.

@OP being early is as bad as being late for predictions. I got really wet waiting for bus to come along, standing at the bus stop cause some guy told me it was coming.

Wait another few more days and the bus will be along just on time
