I am sad at what Nokia did.First,they released Maemo powered devices and then the Nokia N9.But even before release,Elop said that there's not gonna be any more support for MeeGo.
So,Maemo and MeeGo dead.And that's not it.Nokia released Ashas which were powered with Meltemi,a Symbian S40 touch alternative.And they apparently killed Meltemi too.Same for Symbian.I'm sad,very sad.
And no one had much luck with Microsoft.Elop became CEO in Macromedia just 3 months before the company bankrupted and was bought by Adobe.
I don't hate Lumias,but they better release something different,because all the windows phones now are different from each other by a few megapixels,screen size or resolution and a few buttons.I could buy a good WP Samsung aswell instead of Nokia..

^^ Some of his points reflected with what I have said previously on this thread, Nokia's downfall is worse than in
's 5 years ago.

My initial thoughts when this thread was started were that Nokia will not make it, but now after RIM's announcement of delaying their BB10 phones I am beginning to think that they are as good as dead.
All of a sudden Nokials chances look slightly better particularly after the Windows 8 unveiling.
Tragic for RIM as I am still going to get the N phone to replace my P1i next year when it comes out.
I wish I had a magic wand to save RIM... only for its QWERTY phones and a very promising BB10 OS.

I have never been a big fan of RIMs offerings as I have always thought of them as old, difficult phones but with the popularity of BBM I think RIM will always a stand a chance of coming back. Waiting until 2013 when so many would have the latest iPhone during the holiday season and perhaps then looking to new offerings from Samsung and others only makes things worse for and I don't see how they can get to many sales then to make up.

if RIM stops competing with apple and samsung and focus on bussiness models than yeah it might have a chance. Concerning Nokia, if M$ again dont allow customisation to manufacturers, than I dont see with what can Nokia stand out of a crowd?Pureview Win8 ok, but how many zeros it will cost?

it all depends on Windows Phone 8.. by the looks of it Microsoft is going to go strong after corporate america, and if RIM loos the battle there, they are done.

I beleive RIM's reputation was severely damaged by their outage they priviously suffered. I see BB phones everywhere but I think that really did them damage.

Yes if Nokia went Android they'd perhaps be as big or bigger than Samsung are now. Their Lumia 800 & 900 are great but not mind blowing. The 710 has been a fair success for it's good specs for low price. But also what worries me is two other things. Why are they releasing crap like the Lumia 610 making Windows even more restricted. And why are they so slow in releasing their new Windows phones?? I was expecting a huge influx from Nokia. I still like many of their handsets but am starting to worry. Their Lumia 900 is a success in US and some northern European countries but it's not enough I don't think
Nokia was smart didnt go for android. For a fanboy android is actually dying.
No.1 due to fragmentation problem
No. 2 Google aquired Motorola it you notice Samsung Galaxy Nexus are getting updates first because its google. If Google focus their newer OS and updates what happen to other manufacturer like samsung, HTC and etc
No. 3 Too many competition until they running out of ideas like samsung voice command become S-voice , NFC becomes S-beam. Their competition are not only famous manufacturer but also china competition.
No. 4 A single core windowsphone can outbeat a dual core android. Just imagine a quad core WP vs a quad core android that will make android a joke with its constant lag.
No. 5 Android keep getting over price and over price example samsung galaxy SIII plastic and cheap casing with quad core cost of an iphone with nothing special.
For windows phone user they will notice the marketplace are getting more and more apps even famous apps are available including games and social app. The trend is same last time was symbian then become iphone then blackberry then android after ppl bored of android guess where will they switch?
