Nokia had four options with IOS, webOS, Android, WP7, or combinations thereof. It has chosen the worst option. The press commented: "Pact of fear", "New strategy ineffective", "Nokia will fail" ... The stock market has already punished Nokia - 20% loss of value, price target 5, - EUR ... further into the basement!
who now buys a smartphone by Nokia? New products on WP7 in 2012? In the dynamics of the market and competitors, this means a fall to the bottom. Nokia and Microsoft fit well together in and of itself. Both leaders have slept through the trends of the time, little innovation and slow, heavy like a supertanker - the other hand, Apple and Google are racing boats.
Microsoft reminds me of the IBM of the 80, who has slept through the triumph of the PC's in the consumer sector. At that time, the winner of Microsoft and IBM had played no role in the PC area ... History repeats itself, but what makes Nokia if they do not sell more phones? Back to the rubber boots? For Microsoft, it's a last rescue attempt for his mobile phone strategy, must fail. A company that takes several months to implement a "copy and paste" function, in this market is not viable.
be in 2011 not least because of China (ZTE and Huawei), Android smartphones the river in the middle segment and believe it is already clear that 2012/13 almost all phones "smart" will be.
My forecast for Q4/2011 - smartphone market (Q4/2010):
Android 60% (32.9%)
Apple 20% (16.0%) 8%
Nokia (30.6%)
2 Microsoft% (3.1%)
10% residual (RIM, WebOS, ...)
