@_ChrisHarris no idea. MSFT has basically zero control of Nokia during the transition period (even less than before deal made, actually) -
@monkbent@_ChrisHarris Elop is a Microsoft employee. - 1 more reply

@monkbent However much internal team wants something doesn't get Elop to stand on stage and announce. MS approved experiment IMO. -
@__MarkW__ Yeah. Who knows. Maybe they’re somehow delaying the close so that they can plead ignorance ;) -
@monkbent Convenient brand protection window.

@monkbent for devs already targeting Android, targeting X so easy it's actually a decent platform on-ramp. -
@natbro yes. Which is why they should use it for the whole line -
@monkbent all shakes out with a WP Android compat layer soon. acq and sorting out a Windows-dev-friendly message is complicating this. -
@monkbent that said, what a cluster-f*. elop jumping off the burning platform to WP and high-end phones just a huge screw up.
