Nokia sells a ton of phones, more phones than everyone but Samsung. Most of the phones Nokia sells are basic and are sold in markets that people on HN forget still exist. The developing world is where the mobile battle is headed (Facebook and Google are making a push, even Apple has been pressured to go for the lower end market). Microsoft now has a sales channel that put handsets in 60M hands in the past 12 months. I assume they want a lot of people's first smartphone to be a Windows Mobile phone.
