So first Nokia buy out Symbian, poisoning it too all other phone vendors. Than having killed the only thing that might ever have competed with WinCE, they're in bed with M$. Mine's the coat with a psion5 in one pocket, and an iPhone in the other.

The previous boss for Nokia, Ollila was strong and clever enough to stay out of bed with the Plague. Now I am getting worried about Nokia.

Why bother with a loser like Yahoo? M$ should just buy out Nokia. There won't be any antitrust concerns because M$ phones have flopped so badly that there's hardly any overlap.

Psion will be "legacy" hardware, when something better comes along. Although, yeah, I take your point the iPhone's a bit drastic.
Game changer?
