Gut gebrüllt, Scoble #Nokia
by Bö. Average Reading Time: almost 2 minutes.
Nach dem “Burning Platform“-Memo und dem Wechsel zu Microsoft war ich, wie so viele, skeptisch, ob “Windows Phone 7″ für Nokia wirklich die Zukunft ist. Klar, sicher besser als Symbian… aber WP7?
Einer, der fest an die neue Nokia-Microsoft-Strategie glaubt, ist US-Oberblogger. Sei Beitrag “Dear Nokia fans: you’re nuts!” lohnt sich:
If you go over to Nokia’s announcement where they announced a sweeping deal with Microsoft and read all the comments you’ll see that most of the comments are in total despair mode.It’s like a bunch of Google employees are astroturfing the comments there. “I’m gonna buy Android” they all say. Many others say “how can Elop (Nokia’s CEO) bet on a failed platform?” Other blogs are calling this note “a suicide note.”You all are nuts.So, let’s all take a deep breath together and calm down. I know it’s shocking to hear that your beloved Symbian sucks, but I’ve been saying it for years and you’ve been calling me names. I come from the future and I know you don’t like to be dragged into it.You’ll soon come to see that Windows Phone 7 actually rocks and actually is a lot nicer to use than Android.If you go over to Nokia’s announcement where they announced a sweeping deal with Microsoft and read all the comments you’ll see that most of the comments are in total despair mode.It’s like a bunch of Google employees are astroturfing the comments there. “I’m gonna buy Android” they all say.

PS: Mittlerweile ist Scoble aber wieder bitzli anderer Meinung.

Konkurrenz belebt das Geschäft. Also vielleicht spornt diese Allianz Apple- und Androidentwickler etwas mehr an. Dass Nokias Geräte aber wieder interessant werden glaube ich nicht.
