How to get 37 million….
needs 1 million on Q4, apparently it did not,…

In Q1 3 million
in Q2 6 million
in Q3 10 Million
in Q4 18 Million

This is the utmost minimum in 3 months we should get the Q1 results and in 6 months we should have a pretty good idea if at all it will be possible to reach those numbers.

Great analysis, it’s what I’ve been trying to say here for a while as well. There is no hope for Nokia any way you look at it. Unless suddenly top tier Symbian and Maemo devices start to appear. With elop in place that is unrealistic.

It went down by 30% in Feb just after the announcement.. And then sales went down which lowered it even more.. Blaming OPK for this fall??? This is purely Elop’s..

Check the nokia stock graph for a year…

Nope. Reduced sales have continued to half the value of Nokia. It happened again in April.

Elop is trying to turn that around. I have used Symbian phones for years but they haven’t been able to compete. An N8 with Belle released in early 2010 could have – should have – but OPK’s disastrous stewardship caused that to fail.

Lol..

Honestly, that was a bad statement to make. The “Real Windows Phone”..

That’s because there wasn’t a Real Windows Phone before Q4/’11, now it will pick up faster than any platform in the history of mobile industry *whistle*

Agree.. ST-Ericsson got a symbian version running on the u8500 chip before other OSes back in 2010. Symbian EAK2 always had support for dual-cores but it wasn’t properly developed\tested.. If they had developed on that, Symbian would have been miles ahead today.. I’m mad at Nokia for stagnating on the old arm11 architecture for about 5 years..
