I usually never read Tomi Ahonen, as I find him biased, long-winded and extremely annoying (he frequently adds "haha" to sentences). But in this case it's fascintating to observe how a die-hard Nokia...

Re: Nokia CEO Elop lays groundwork for new strategy to be announced next month, a move away from meego? Hello WP7!!

Here's what what I take from the Elop-Ballmer QA kissfest.

Windows Phone is now Nokia's primary platform. This is as clear as daylight.
Symbian is secondary and will be phased out over the medium...

Microsoft = Hugh Hefner
Elop = Playboy Bunny
Symbian = Her Ageing Husband
MeeGo = Son

The Bunny is going to move into Hef's mansion. Symbian and MeeGo are coming...

It's like a bad daytime soapie...

Symbian = Ageing Dad
Elop = Dad's New Wife
MeeGo = Son
Intel = Rich Uncle
Microsoft = Prospective Lover

Will the wife leave her husband for the new lover?...

Re: Nokia CEO Elop lays groundwork for new strategy to be announced next month, a move away from meego?
