What September 5 to expect from Nokia

It is obvious that on September 5, Nokia will present at least two smartphones on WP8. It is likely that one of them will tend to the size of the Galaxy Note. No less likely that one of the devices will be equipped with a camera with PureView technology. It probably will not be 41 MP, but the technology can be implemented on the WP8 platform. Absolutely unbelievable, but whether I just want to believe in it and the poet I add some facts to the desired, or these facts really line up in a logical chain - but I cannot completely rule out the option that on September 5 a device will be presented that continues Nokia Linux lineup.



This last assumption is supported, for example, by the fact that the operating system and the ecosystem of applications in N9 continue to evolve, and, developing, they do not lag behind, but are a few steps ahead of all existing analogues. The most illustrative example here is the QNeptunea twitter client, which has no analogues to the extended functionality in any smartphone system, and this application itself is neither for iOS nor for Android, which is, you see, strange. The question is, why does the developer make a very cool application for the operating system, which in theory is hopeless and finite? Is he counting on the Jolla project? Or does he know something about the future of MeeGo Harmattan, which we don’t know? It is also noteworthy that one of the very handy features of QNeptunea is the built-in tweet translator. So, as a translation service, the developer used not the most popular Google Translator, but the Microsoft Translator.

In fact, if WP8, like WP7.5, is a closed OS, then the development of MeeGo as an open mobile platform with maximum integration of Microsoft services into it is quite a reasonable strategic move. In this case, the July riot of Jolla seems to be a real riot, not inspired by Nokia itself, in such a tricky way to separate the powerful component of the company into a separate, formally independent unit, which, in case of failure, WP can buy Nokia (not without the help of the Finnish government, for example) to the great happiness of a not so small camp of Maemo and MeeGo fans and fans.

Actually, if Nokia presents a MeeGo-device, or at least one proposal will be said about its prospects by Nokia, then we can finally be convinced that the situation with Jolla is exactly the way it is presented to us. If not a word is said about MeeGo, then completely excluding the fact that Jolla and I are Nokia’s Plan B in action cannot be. Wait is not so long. On September 5, at 6 pm Moscow time, the live broadcast of this link will begin at the New York joint presentation of Nokia and Microsoft.

By the way, on September 8, the Jolla company is going to hold a presentation . So, next Monday it will be possible not to guess, but based on quite clear data, to present the configuration and trends of the IT market development in the first half of next year. Although still not quite. Because the presentation of Apple is scheduled for September 12th. It will be the last event in this autumn recalculation of chickens, which began on August 29th with a Samsung presentation.
