Why The Hell Did Nokia Want To Use Windows Phone 7?

i'm surprised on what nokia has done with meego and this makes me think...why did they even abandon(reduced r&d) the thing if it was this good? atleast with meego nokia would control their own fate...i mean it looks damn good why would they even rely on Microshit?

I agree, it's a damn shame... but I guess it was a given once Elop came to Nokia.

The N9 managed to one up the iPhone 3G at launch, but developer support is much less. Adding something like swipe in to another OS isn't that hard, for the N9 to build a similar app library is an entirely different matter.
