As everyone knows, I’m an out-and-out Windows Mobile worshipper. It’s like a girlfriend, who is very difficult to manage and understand at first, but is a great source of joy if you know how to manage her. I don’t like any other phones now; the extensibility given by WM will do that to you.
I also “admire” Nokia because of the quality and reliability they provide with their phones. Having worked for them in a project (Nokia Networks/Nokia Seimens Networks actually), I know how much testing they put in before releasing something. That coupled with the recent crap-doings by even the largest of the WM Phone companies like HTC, have made me try to look elsewhere.
Now, if this news comes true, then we are in for a treat, as the two giants might just come together to give us a sweet little toy for our “smart” cravings 
. Read the news and let us know how you feel about it.
PS: Don’t even mention iPhone/iPod/iTouch or any other iCrap.

Well, First of all I absolutely adgere to your P.S. “… Very well said “Please do not even mention any iShit… for its for the Dumb so that they can help their craving of becoming even Dumber…
Now about Nokia & Windows Mobile marriage, this will certainly push the windows mobile platform in everyone’s hands attributing to Nokia’s celebrated status as a “RELIABLE” phone. I really don’t know what forces people to even buy nokia phones. Well, before I miss the point (by shooting on Nokia phones even more) at this point its hard to appreciate for me how good is it going to be for windows mobile and PDA category devices. Well, as many people might already know that Nokia’s so called SMART PHONES are just a piece of crap in terms of not even software (OS) , but also hardware as compared to HTC devices. Now if Nokia uses Windows Mobile on that sloppy hardware (low RAM, low processor speed, low everthing, but HIGH PRICE) then how good its going to be is a question. Plus, I would not really like Windows Mobile (an OS de perfection) to be used by people who really don’t even know whats the meaning of an OS or worst by some educated “Who needs all this in a phone”/”iPhone is the best device till date” kind of idiots who (probably have got the iShitPhone just as a status symbol) question the use of such capable OS in the first place… Nokia surely is a marketing genius and so its not difficult to imagine that Windows Mobile may also become a toy in the hands of all those High class ignorants which don’t even bother to appreciate the mighty OS, let alone explore its uses, capabilities… Oh yeah, I too am obsessed with Windows Mobile !!!

Nitin, actually Nokia’s do have decent hw nowadays, e.g. N95 has a >300 MHz ARM11, good amounts ROM/RAM etc (though we may want more than that
).
My increasing interest in this is more because of the fact that HTC has become too complacent, cuz the likes of i-mate, TFW, Gigabyte are nothing more than ants in front of the giant that HTC is. It would take a big(ger) company to give them competeition and resultantly give the WM market a push which is really going into an evolutionary mode (that too at the pace of a snail) rather being revolutinoary.
Now, Nokia and MS have denied all such news, but we all know 90% of denied news turn out to be true and 95% of accepted news lead only to vaporware
