Ok... here's the thing... and I don't say this lightly.  You don't know what your talking about. Memo isn't a software or a platform or annything.

The Memo referred to in the OP was an internal Memo, as in a document sent to other people.   It was talking about how their current plan was flawed and leading to them losing market share.

i meant Meego OS, i just mixed up with the names

Still doesn't really make sence.  Meego was expensive as hell... at least compaired to the ROI.

They couldn't afford to keep all those developers on staff for such a tiny percentage of marketshare. 

The Memo barely mentions Meego outside of how it's sales weren't doing awesome, which everybody already knew.

 

I mean hell, again saying this is a huge microsoft conspiracy is silly, because it's not even the most popular conspiracy theory.

There is a more popular one... but with actual analyst backing.

Which in of itself is silly as hell but hey.  It's atleast plausable.

 

Lately with this financial stuff, people have been trying to be critical of a platform, and been critisizing it for the exact opposite of what the valid complaints are.   It's "Should sony spin off Sony Entertainment" all over again.
