Oh and I forgot growing faster in apps than the other 2 companies… and GOOD apps at that !!
MS ecosystem =
1- syncing data with phone, desktop, accessible by any online access. Also use of cloud apps in this manner.
2- cross platform from PC ( which MS has 90% of the market of) using IE9 both on desktop and on phone. Allowing developers to provide services to people on the desktop or phone
3- allow Xbox games
4-collaboration of map data of Nokia plus Bing’s
5-Bing catching up on a search engine by 6% growth last month
iphone and Droid have nothing on these 5 things MS offers Nokia!
Nokia + Microsoft = Double Fail.
Thumbs Up If The New Software Update Made Your N8 Awesome
Elop will be in for a nasty surprise if he thinks that Microsoft WinPhone7 OS will be the savior of Nokia.
Third ecosystem? Talk about being overly presumptuous.
Then again, if Nokia’s share price goes to hell, Microsoft will buy over Nokia for cheap.
Nokia should have continued the Meego OS as well as combining all the positives of each other smart phone OS. It just seems that each company is so concentrated on making their OS different and good that they have forgotten to listen to the people and look at what’s selling for other companies. This is one of the reasons Android has grown so rapidly, they listen to the market.
Nokia has sold its soul to the devil, Windows mobile (and now) Windows phone 7 has always sucked, well, now I will change to android with Xperia PlayStation Phone :S

bad idea ………
i love nokia ..i was eagerly waiting for nokia linux devices like N9….
i am disappointed with this .. i should look for an alternative for my future phones…
Why did my ears hurt when Balmer said “Hotmail”?
Windows Phone 7 is the best ..
Looks like i will not be buying any Nokia devices again

Nokia’s CEO: “Bad idea… bad idea…”
lets see how it goes. i hope microsoft isnt gay
Do not do it Nokia! I have used Nokia since the day I was born. Microsoft is a leach!!! They like charging high prices for everything. Don’t do it Nokia please!!
Well, that was just amazing to see 2 giants holding on to each other as they sink in the sea that is andoid and iPhone. Nokia should just stick to feature phones. RIP Meego we never knew you.
this decition is an epic fail… the beginning of the end of nokia
Nakia?
nokia wont abandon thedir other systems they will make more symbian phones and meego phones , and android will be best after wp7 and meego even symbian , “Windows may not be the exclusive operating system for Nokia tablets though.
Mr Elop was at Microsoft before joining Nokia “We reserve the right to introduce tablets using other platforms, including ones we may be working on internally,” he said.

forget nokia, get an android-phone. something like x10 mini pro or samsung galaxy 5
They fear apple. And now are nokia + microsoft together ! But its too late for the next 2 -3 years.
Let’s take two companies that are playing catch up in the mobile market, and failing, put them together to manage a single unit. This sounds like a great idea, let’s grab the oxygen mask out of the over head before we hit the ground at 500 miles per hour cause it’s going to make it hurt less. Both companies had there time but both companies need to step out of the way or come up with something new and better. App, app, app, until two years ago there was no such thing. Apple created it, and is e
