Can't agree with you more about Nokia picking up Windows Mobile. They should have gone with Android customized it to their liking (just like what Amazon did with kindle fire), taken advantage of already existing apps and ramp up from there just like what Samsung is doing right now. A big transition to a nascent mobile platform slows them down further, they seem to be heading towards the same fate as Palm.
- recoiledsnake 15y agoNokia is incomparable to Palm, you'd be more likely to know that if you've spent considerable time in Europe or Asia (apart from Japan). There are millions of people there who will blindly buy a Nokia phone regardless of the software. How do you think Symbian is still pushing so many sales? Palm? It has nothing on Nokia, 'Nokia' is synonymous for 'cell phone' in many countries.

How do you think Symbian is still pushing so many sales? Because it runs on very low-end hardware, which makes it cheap. That advantage is slowly dying as low-end mobile chipsets get more powerful (eg, Android phones are down to $80 here, with no contract)
