Nokia & Microsoft - Dance Into Oblivion

People seem to have short memories - instant replay of Treo and Windows Mobile. After Palm dumped their OS for WM, in a few years they were gone (bought up...). And this obviously didn't help Microsoft either as WM went into oblivion as well.

I have no idea how long it will take for them to come out, but I don't think either of the companies thought of doing this last week. Something tells me this planning has been going on for sometime. Also remember, many of the smartphone's (maybe not...
