WOW, was just looking at https://www.google.com/finance?client=ob&q=NYSE:NOK
She is not pretty
Sure Microsoft will buy her out soon, they can not afford Nokia to fall in the wrong hands, or to crash and burn.

.... and thanks for all the fish.
They waited too long before competing with iOS and Android. The result was always inevitable. RIM will follow soon.

So let me get this straight.
Nokia is trouble basically because they did not keep up with the times, but now ...
But, doing some research on MeeGo reveals.Meanwhile, a Finnish startup called Jolla, formed by former Nokia employees, plans to launch its first smartphone later this year.
Jolla will use MeeGo software, created by Nokia and Intel in 2010-2011, for its products, according to Reuters.
Not a good start it seemsWhat's Next for MeeGo

By now, you may have read that The Linux Foundation, with the support of several other companies, announced a new project, Tizen, to build a new operating system for devices. This new project is first and foremost open source, and based on Linux. So it begs the question: why not just evolve MeeGo? We believe the future belongs to HTML5-based applications, outside of a relatively small percentage of apps, and we are firmly convinced that our investment needs to shift toward HTML5. Shifting to HTML5 doesn't just mean slapping a web runtime on an existing Linux, even one aimed at mobile, as MeeGo has been. Emphasizing HTML5 means that APIs not visible to HTML5 programmers need not be as rigid, and can evolve with platform technology and can vary by market segment.
Granted, this is a judgment on our part on which reasonable people could disagree, but that's the conclusion I came to.
But in the new project, a lot of things will be the same as they were in the MeeGo project. The Tizen project will reside within the Linux Foundation, will be governed by a Technical Steering Group, and will be developed openly with familiar and improved infrastructure. Much like MeeGo, the Tizen project will support multiple device categories, including Tablets, Netbooks, Handsets, Smart TV, and In-Vehicle Infotainment systems.
Over the next couple of months, we will be working very hard to make sure that users of MeeGo can easily transition to Tizen, and I will be working even harder to make sure that developers of MeeGo can also transition to Tizen.
I want to personally thank everyone who has participated in MeeGo over the past year and a half, and I encourage you to join us at Tizen.org. We hope to use what we learned from the MeeGo project to make Tizen successful, and I hope to see you participating in Tizen!
Clintx would sort of agree with you there
Nokia share price down 97% in just 5years; coincidently, 5years ago I would not buying a phone if it wasnt a nokia, and I sure as hell would not handle a samsung phone even with a hazmat suit. Now, 5years later, somewhere in a cupboard I have a box of nokia chargers and phones, and I go nowhere whithout my samsung sgs2.... eish.
