I am encouraged that Nokia has made a deal with Microsoft to put Windows Phone 7 on their upcoming smartphones!  Nokia has a large (though shrinking) share of the cellphone market, and is well known worldwide, so this has the potential of making WP7 even better known than it already is.

Not everyone was happy about this, however.  I see that quite a few Nokia workers walked out in protest.  This is decidedly odd, given that Nokia has been losing market share steadily and has to do something to reverse it.  What do these people think, anyway, that Microsoft has cooties?
