While it's refreshing to see a CEO admit mistakes, I wonder if Mr. Elop regrets the 10,000 additional layoffs, weak Lumia sales, plunging stock price, tarnished reputation, ejection of projects that were much beloved?
Or is it a sinister plot to weaken Nokia to the point where MS can step in and buy them, and bring phone production into a vertical integration scheme in an effort to emulate Apple? Tin foil hat wearers and yours truly see it that way, but I don't think it's any coincidence that an ex-MS exec would choose WinMo right after joining Nokia....
