How many S60 phones Motorola has? Even the UIQ phones were failures and were discontinued. And Motorola has only one real Windows Mobile phone: Q. If Samsung or Motorola had their own operating system selling as well as Symbian/S60 they would never use any other operating systems (like Windows Mobile). If you are so smart, please tell us what would Windows Mobile bring to Nokia? It is or would one day be much more expensive than Symbian.

Are you really claiming that Nokia has made a huge mistake? Look at the sales figures! Nokia does not WANT Windows Mobile, Nokia does not NEED Windows Mobile, Windows Mobile does NOT SELL well enough, Nokia CANNOT CUSTOMIZE Windows Mobile as it wishes. How many more reasons you still need to understand that there are absolutely no reasons at all why Nokia should use Windows Mobile. They don't love it like you do.

You supposed detractors are a sad lot. You go to breast cancer site forums and offer the same level of insightful wisdom, I'm sure.

All of the best selling phones from Nokia, Motorola, Samsung, Sony Ericsson don't run Symbian, WinMob or Palm.
Based on your logic, Nokia doesn't need SymbianOS either  |

iantaylor27 you are not saying anything on topic but just offending people who use/own Windows Mobile phones.
this is LAST WARNING: if you will not stop, I will ban you. |

And their market share is way to big to switch from a formula that keeps them as the dominating force in the world's markets. All Nokia has done with this move is show the Windows users how inclusive Nokia is - compared with how exclusive Microsoft is to other OSes (Mac, Palm, Linux). A very smart business move on Nokia's part.

Not to worry ian - I've had about 5 "LAST WARNINGS" too. Not sure how many it really takes.

Bullshit! Nokia's purchase of IntelliSync was 100% a portfolio-building excersize. All else is pure political spin. 'Inclusiveness'?? Get over it. An intelligent business decision? Very likely unless another universally capable syncing solution is presented to market.

Come on wiseacre, don't be such a damper! If someone had called all Symbian fans sucking lamers that had been totally on-topic, right? That's what this is all about.

So you cannot disagree with wiseacre and all the Windows Mobile people without being a detractor? Wake up! Personally, I don't like Symbian much and I use Windows Mobile phones. But I don't like the one-eyed style of wiseacre. You have to be objective when comparing Symbian and Windows Mobile. You cannot just say what suits best to yourself.
Nokia is doing wonderful business, nobody can deny that. But Microsoft's Windows Mobile business would be very different if the company was in the position of Nokia. There would be no mercy for competitors. For sure, Microsoft wouldn't use any other operating systems than its own.
I think Nokia is much more humane. This is American versus European way of doing business. Microsoft is kind and co-operative for everybody as long as it has to be. As we have seen HTC doing, partnerships are immediately broken when they are no longer needed. There is no loyalty or gratefulness when big global companies are doing business.

Well said. And by including members of a market that traditionally goes out of its way to exclude Nokia, they have managed to satisfy stockholders and customers alike. Microsoft, and their paltry 6% (perhaps) of the world phone market could learn a lesson from this.
Hey wiseacre - can I use warpoet's eloquent vocabulary in my signature?
He's really quite the talented writer.
I'm sure his knowledge of this subject matter is extensive. 
He truly knows what he's talking about. 
Quoting is fun.
