Hmmm , interesting , looks like Elop is on his way out , great to hear ! The changes to Nokia ( e.g. Meego , N9 , Symbian 3 ) were underway before Elop came on board . I agree that he was there to do some dirty work . Hmmm , a female Nokia CEO …

I don’t like the F-secure product that was on my E7. not good. So, now I see the relation with the default anti-theft being F-Secure

Or maybe the Nokia stakeholders are now trying to flush out the Trojan with this? The Antivirus guy will sit over and governs the trojan. So he can flush it out when the trojan does any violation to the organisation..

Yes, and what I’ve heard from the inside is that a lot of talented coders have left Nokia after Feb 11. People really were angry for Elop and drew conclusions. And then there are also those that just got the boot.

It would be great, if some journalist would research and make a story about Elop’s rule in Nokia. Especially this sudden jump to Microsoft’s lap. A documentary and an article series would be nice. What an interesting read and watch that would be.

But if such thing happens, their smartphone division will not just dissapear. It would be sold to somebody.

From the Conversations Article:

“Nokia’s head of Mobile Phones, Mary McDowell, talks to Karen Bartlett about mobiles, murder mysteries and whether the company is ready for its first woman CEO”

The last sentence has got me thinking, would the day that smartphone could put up against p & S and some Digi cams will be over ? will this be the iPhone and iOS race ?

Yep, but sadly, Nokia has lost a hell a lot of high-position people (a CTO, NFC guys, profilic salesmen, OS strategies…) in the past year, far more than any of their competitors…

Yup. I wouldn’t count on just three engineers in a workforce of over 100k myself…
