Microsoft-Nokia deal to take two years for "transition"
Mary Jo Foley at ZDnet has gone through the form 20-F filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission from Nokia which describes in detail the deal with Microsoft. While nothing really wow wothy was unearthed, there are few bits of interesting things:
- The deal is still not finalized between the two giants, instead a non-binding term canvas is in place till everything is finalized
- The transition to using Windows Phone 7 as its "main smartphone platform" volition take virtually 2 years
- They want to transition the 200 1000000 Symbian users over to WP7 over time
- "Nokia would bring assets such equally its make, hardware, production, global reach, awarding store, operator billing back up, maps and location-based assets to the partnership."
Other aspects include the importance of Silverlight to the platform, which makes sense since Silverlight is making a big transition to mobile, desktop and fifty-fifty gaming Bone's. Of course, the big question is about the "two twelvemonth transition" and what that means for when we'll actually see a Nokia Windows Telephone. As of right at present, the "aircraft in volume past 2022" part sounds pretty accurate with 2022 slipping away. Nokia and Microsoft seem really keen on not just pumping out a phone with Nokia branding but really integrating Nokia'due south services into the Windows Telephone platform--no easy chore and one that will accept time.
We predict we'll run across some hardware prototypes by years finish, simply nix shipping till mid-2012, which seems a long way from now. The interesting question is how will WP7 fair till Nokia can actually unleash its full capability into new phones for Microsoft. It also lends credence to the thought that a Nokia Windows Telephone won't exist based on version "7" but whatever "8" will exist, hence the observation that Nokia CEO Stephen Elop never says "Windows Phone 7" when discussing the Nokia bargain.
