He truly was the grand designer of the N9 and the Lumia series. Both are highly praised by him and all of those products are truly awesome if you believe him. The N9 was something great and now WP is the best you can have. He will tell you all about that.

His presentation skills are highly praised just because he is able to pronounce some words. That’s why finns just loved Elop when he took over Nokia. He was fluent with English. Elop was really loved in Finland back in 2010. It’s easy to remember that because people hated me because I wasn’t sure if he was really any good for Nokia.

That’s really all that matters. You have to speak fluent English with a good story and they will praise you.

Marko Ahtisaari just walked in to the Finnish Independence Day reception wearing a tie with what looked like the Lumia Live Tiles color blocks.

For those unaware, Finnish Independence Day celebrations at the presidential castle are one of the most watched television programs here.

Well not really. Most people just think he’s a son of ex-president who got the job because of his connections. That’s all. He seems to be doing good job at running Nokia design. I have to admit that his talks are getting bit annoying because he just repeats himself. “Cars had tillers” and “romantically pinching and zooming”.

Marko’s presentation skills are highly praised in Finland and people seem to admire his work. Finland is the home of Nokia and lots of people in Finland seem to think he is the genius designing the great designs Nokia is offering. Some people even think that the company would fall without him.

He really is a true showman because he can pronounce English.

Not that I agree, but I always felt that the 710 was deeply under promoted, it feels good holding it, not cheep at all.

Well from the UI/UX none that’s microsofts area now NOKIA is just a OEM that does no change what so ever to it.

In the hardware they try and some of the lumias featured some not so bad innovations, its just a pity that this quality terminals are stuck in a 2%-3% market share pool.

Certainly I’m not claiming the greatest discovery of this month, it’s just that here the situation is nicely demonstrated, with Ahtisaari seemingly unaware of the absurdity.

On a side note, it’s interesting that Ahtisaari said they don’t work on creating some new ground-breaking things, but rather perfecting and polishing already existing, widely used things. I wonder what that tells us about what innovative products we could expect from Nokia…

I thought Kevin Shields’ presentation was good, aside from some stuttering in places and a technical glitch, but I agree that Jo Harlow isn’t good, though. Wished they could have replaced her with Ahtisaari.

Lumia 620 can’t match a 701, it’s not really a balanced & feature packed phone like a 701, and I doubt if the RAM will be enough for wp8.
