Nokia and Microsoft have finally concluded a long awaited partnership which is supposed to trigger the development of Nokia, the largest cell phone maker which has lately yielded its positions in the global market share. Nokia casted aside its home grown operating system in favor of the software made by Microsoft, this broad strategic alliance will make Nokia-Microsoft couple a deserved rival of Apple and Google, the current leaders of the Smartphone market.
The newly appointed Nokia’s chief executive Stephen Elop confirmed Windows Mobile 7 to be the company’s number one platform.
“Nokia is at a critical juncture, where significant change is necessary and inevitable in our journey forward,” said Elop. “Today, we are accelerating that change through a new path, aimed at regaining our smartphone leadership.”
Nokia will advance Windows Mobile platform handling issues like hardware design, imaging and mapping, meanwhile Microsoft in its turn will put its best in Nokia devices, starting with the integration of Bing.
We all love Nokia and we truly hope that it will recoup its market positions in the nearest future.
