Nokia has been turning around slowly after its gutsy decision to abandon its in-house smartphone platform and support Microsoft Office Phone operating system.
With new handsets based on the QNX operating system not due until early 2012, and questions over whether application designers will be willing to support the platform, we believe there are serious concerns for RIM over the next year.
His organization had spent a lot of money on old technology and while happy with it, he was being forced to adopt a new platform because the product vendor was moving on, leaving no support for the old system.
