How upset will Nokia be if there’s a Surface Phone from Microsoft?
Publicly, Nokia will talk about the strength of the eco-system, but behind closed doors there will be a more hostile reaction… and a very careful reading of all the contracts and patent agreements.
More of my thoughts at Forbes.
Another point the pessimists of Feb 11 pointed out – very few positive partnerships have ever developed with MS. They are the hippo in the bed that rolls over and squashes you.
