Nokia is dismissing Meltemi, a Linux-based platform for feature phones

I think several of us have already come to that conclusion, previously.
What do mean mole, Nokia is MS in everything but name I think that has been very obvious from pretty much day one of the switch to the MS platform.
MS is nothing but a patent troll and thus their really only real interest in Nokia is patents, they couldn't give a monkeys scrotum for the phones, as a producer of phones Nokia is finished.

Nokia is effectively a Microsoft subsidiary, ever since they hired Elop.
Who thinks otherwise is a fool.

Spot on gus3. Of considerable interest to me however, is what the Finns think of Microsoft's progressive (deliberate ?) destruction of one of their biggest and best companies.
Anyone remember the infamous "efficient markets theory"?
From all I can gather, Nokia's shareholders are getting screwed, royally. Whither this sacred cow of a theory?
Is this another dimension of "create your own 'un'reality?" Or, am I full of it (again)?

So, the "invisible hand" is a "sacred cow"?
How appropriate.

Yes, they are. But that has nothing to do with the "effiicent markets theory". The efficient market hypothesis says that all information about a company is integrated into its price.
See http://www.investopedia.com/terms/e/efficientmarkethypothesi... for the gory details.
Nokia's terrible management IS being reflected in the company's price.

Is this going to end up being all about patents?
Nokia is effectively already an MS subsidiary. If that status becomes official, formalized by actual purchase, would Microsoft finally have actual, substantive patents to wield against Android, and perhaps Linux?

My bet is on MS. For them it is win-win. If Nokia somehow (maybe with black magic) succeeds to make Windows Phone hot, MS has its entry in the smart phone business. If Nokia fails, MS can whisk up Nokia's vast patent portfolio for peanuts and extort revenue from all other phone manufacturers.
