Semi good news for Nokia. Too bad very few people give a shit about Nokia or Windows phones in the USA. I don't see Nokia doing that much better in a few years. They are like RIM. A past history of cellphone manufactures.


semi good?

lol

Nokia are doing everything right at the moment.  making the right deals, grabbing mind share all over the place.  This is just the start if a decent come back. 

Stock up over 100% injust a few months. 

and to quote an oft used phrase.... US =/= World.

No one gives a shit about Nokia is USA.  Sure USA doesn't = world but that still says something.  I might be out of the loop but I don't think that many Americans give a shit about Nokia.  Nokia will never break out.  Sure they are doing better than they did; at least they aren't releasing another N Gage.  Nokia will never mean anything to me.  Nokia will be lucky to get 10-15% market share with Windows phone.  If you ask me they might as well went with Android.

I disagree, the OS on the lumia is very nice and has far more personality than android. I'm currently trying to decide between a lumia or a Note

Sorry, can't help but LOL. Claiming that Windows Phone has more personality than Android is just one of  the most absurdest thing one can say.

If you mean the personality of Ballmer, then it might be truw.

Huh? Windows phones do have more personality than Android (arguably). Android is a soulless rip-off of iOS, whereas WP is new, original and the UI is superb

Huh? Android UI is only limited by your imagination. You can even design your whole UI in 5 seconds but you don't need to. Stock Android is lightyears ahead of IOS in UI. Though if you like skeuomorphism like the one fired from Apple recently because of it, you cannot find it in here. LOL.  Saying it is soulles just shows you don't know what you are talking about. I wasn't expecting anything more from you anyway, given your track record.

WP is a joke at the moment. No notification center, no good appstore, Bing, I can go on. If you have a IOS device, at least you have ability to jailbreak. In WP wait a few years if somebody is bored enough to do something with it.

Agreed... its just a lame rip off. Apple did the OS, Google just copied.

iOs is miles away from Android and WP is much nicer than Android. Bing is a good search option and finds everything i want, the rest will get add with time.

Android feels lame, serious it look exactly like the Iphone but way worse. Everytime i see a Android device and all those things it reminds me of Iphone 1 LOL

The only problem with WP is the app marketplace wich has not very option but again the OS is New and with time it will grow.

You cannot go very far with these comments. I can answer that with " Firefox OS is miles away from IOS, IOS looks like crap.". You need to tell something. Even Apple realizes now that IOS is a boring strange skeumorphic crap and they fired Forstall guy for this. I am pretty sure in the next iterations of IOS there will be significant changes in the design of system apps. Holo is just light years ahead of IOS app design. It is minimalistic, easy on the eye, useful and looks great. There isn't any wood or leather to be found, sorry. The difference is laughable. The best designed apps on IOS are Google apps, that should tell you something. 

Saying that Android looks like IOS is idiotic at best and one should have serious eye problem to say something like this. It isn't even remotely similar outside of app drawer, which is not something Apple created. You can do much more in the UI. Sure now that Apple started stealing Android features left and right, you'll see more similarities. The notification center was shamelessly copied. They didn't understand  why it is useful though, in IOS it isn't really useful. In Android you can basically use the phone from notification center. Defaults and Intents are another huge advantage in Android, Apple now tries to implement it in IOS but it is terrible at the moment. This is so useful, it made  the two days of my time with Iphone 5 a nightmare. I guess pretty soon they'll implement some half baked  form of widgets. It will be glorious.
