CEO Elop Hints Nokia Will Be 1st To Windows Phone 8, Weighs In On China And Android
Nokia'sQ2 earnings out today reflect the big challenges for the handset maker amid what CEO Stephen Elop calls the "ferocity" of competition from Android and Apple, but here's a clue to one interesting development: he closed off today's analyst call with a hint that Nokia might be the first handset maker to produce a smartphone on the much-anticipated Windows Phone 8 platform from Microsoft.Asked at the very end of the call if Nokia would make the first phone for Windows Phone 8, Elop would not answer directly, but said: "One signal [of what is coming] is that on the number of occasions when Windows Phone 8 has been demonstrated it has been on a Nokia device. We have a close relationship that is unlike what anyone else has with Microsoft."Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/UfQVsyZkH14/
