What a sad day for Nokia, and a waste of all that open-source work on Maemo and Meego. A lot of people will be put out on the street. For years Nokia stood by idly watching the market, indecisive of which way to go... They could have given birth to "Android" for crying out loud, way before Google even thought about that. And now they will become a Microsoft slave, lose whatever originality they still had left and end up with that generic drab interface. Of course the signs were there ever since that Microsoft shill became CEO... I just hope they can still continue some work behind closed doors and maybe one day have some decent *original* devices – after all, if HP can do it with webOS, Nokia might still have enough good people left to pump out something better and more open than that Microsoft stuff. Unless of course Microsoft has already gobbled up most of the company... We all know that companies in bed with Microsoft end up getting screwed in any way possible. Bah.
