Stock is getting crushed from 38. IMO might be a buy around here 35.5x. Very boring, slow moving stock. The market LOVED the idea that Ballmer was going to resign, did NOT like the notion that Mullaly would NOT be coming after all.

Love my windows phones. My wife has the Nokia Lumina 1020 (the one in the commercial with the awesome camera.) I have a Lumina 920 which is nice but a little big so I just bought the Lumia 520 for $59 with no contract and I LOVE IT. Its small, and the back cover comes off so you can access the battery and swap it out. It doesn’t have a flash but the screen is amazing, you can read it in full sun.

The interface blows iphone and Droid away in my opinion.

I’ll bet the kids over at the NSA are really jumping through some hoops trying to keep up. LOL!

Windows Phone = Smartphone for third world nations.

Which is fine. No insult intended.

Nokia 520 is cheap as can be and has a lot of features. I bought two for my grandsons and one for me to use overseas.

I believe in Europe, at least in UK, the sales numbers were high because they have lower-end Nokia that were relatively cheap.

For me, most of the stuff I used to do with a smart phone, other than talking and texting, I now do with my tablet. So, price is the critical factor in the phone I choose.

I think this comment sums of the situation pretty accurately:

“so no real stats, just empty, unproven statements of sales and perceived market share. Yup. Confuse the consumer, pump false PR about phone sales and stats. Never trust MS when it comes to being upfront. They are basically just low balling the cheap, entry level markets in underdeveloped countries to gain traction, but higher end smartphones is where they lose to android and iOS in the developed world.”
