There is a tremendous turning going on. Just see the bashed Symbian OS now: Symbian Belle fully competitive with any other OS. 9 million downloads a day from Nokia apps store. S40 cheap phones fully capable of running maps and Opera browser. N9 MeeGo superphone rolling out one week from now.
And yes, WP phones coming within 2 months. If that should be of some interest.

It’s as if they, to borrow from the trash-laden Arlo looking over the cliff at the huge garbage heap at the bottom, “decided that one big pile is better than two little piles, and rather than bring that one up we decided to throw ours down.”
