FINNISH PHONE MAKER Nokia has revealed its artist concepts for its Windows Phone handsets that it hopes will replace the 200 million Symbian^3 phones that currently populate the world.
Showing different screens that are known to come with Windows Phone 7, the concept pictures do at least avoid the cliche of the silver trim.

Spot the white version in this tumbling set of Nokia Windows Phones below. Can Apple ignore such a blatant challenge? We think so. The INQUIRER is guessing that Nokia might come to regret this photo as it could be construed as someone ditching the handsets. To the floor with you!

But for a real laugh watch Nokia CEO Stephen Elop jusify his Windows Phone decision in the video below. Will the shareholders sit so meekly in a year's time? µ
These flesh-colored mics drive me nuts. All the white people now look like they're physically disfigured. I suppose black people felt the same way at one point, maybe still do, but OMG.
Maybe next we'll have have chameleon-like hand mics, that are totally invisible, then we'll be wondering if the interviewer is offering a hand job.
Can we make VIDEO & VOICE call over XMPP? gTALK? JABBER ?
Thats the bottom line, Will they make a mobile for CARRIERS or for CUSTOMERS ?
Remember the N900? No CARRIER want to sell a mobile that can make VIDEO CALL over INTERNET.
NOKIA & MSN is DOOMED. WIll never buy something so closed. (and so bad, sorry .. so m$)
It's a shill-shill:
"It obvious this is a good thing for both of them."
The shareholders don't all agree. Here's the best bit, though:
"In turn it also gets to control the development, something that obviously cant happen with Google."
Microsoft will let someone else control the development of their operating system? That stuff you're smoking gets you so high, people on the other side of the planet are being affected. And Android is open source, so Nokia could completely revamp it if they saw fit.
I hope you're getting paid for your nonsense-trolling because you shouldn't be getting paid anything for your "analysis".
It obvious this is a good thing for both of them.
Nokia gets an operating system with the support of one of the biggest operating systems company..
MS gets a serious phone manufacturer that is committed to MS, not android..
This is going to be a situation where nokia can make custom features that can differentiate nokia from the others.
In turn it also gets to control the development, something that obviously cant happen with Google.
I am also willing to bet that nokia sells quite a bit of its high end phones without subsidies, as in unbranded.
Timbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbber!
Elon is right... Localized ads are a value add. Observer how he subtly points to the to Portal 2 logos at 2:43... I Wonder how much Valve paid for that product placement
With his black jacket and grey trousers, don't you think that bloke is dressed like an undertaker?
