Symbian OS is Nokia's undoing, and the same in several respects. After having taken over for 250 million euros on the platform broke with the release of Apple's and Google's Android iOS a difficult time for the old-fashioned system. Symbian recently announced it dead and transferred all responsibilities to a service company that is now taking care of the Symbian fleet.

After all, Nokia had already opted for a long Neuanfag: Windows Phone 7 This seems in light of the fact that all the world relies on the powerful Android OS and Windows Mobile 7 is in these days of the biggest-sellers, a little odd.

Therefore, the Finns joined together with colleagues from Redmond to its mobile operating system also could not sell so well. This alliance will strengthen both now and to position Windows Mobile 7 on the high end market. We may incorporate Nokia's own Ovi services such as Maps, the store's own and other adjustments, while Microsoft and Nokia has probably the best handset manufacturers in the hand, there was.
