About of month ago there was some complains from Nokia about Microsoft not making progress fast enough with the software [1]. Some other reports also stated that Windows Phone 8.1 was about to be postponed to early 2014. [2] Both news (if true) were bad for Nokia which was quite dependent on the success of their higher end mobile phones on short term. I believe Nokia was little bit short of cash and their credit ratings are bad. IF Microsoft would have wanted to cause trouble for Nokia to drive down the acquisition price (or maybe even force them to acquisition), this would have been one way to do it.
