Don’t really see this occuring because their mobile divisions are very profitable and the Nexus devices aren’t as competitive in terms of sales. Personally I can see them milking out their current market dominance and demand special privileges from Google.

Or to be devils advocate, I can down right see Google just telling the less profitable OEM’s to f*** off and consider the likes of Motorola, HTC and Samsung.

You do bring some valid points, however I do see a market for Windows Phone in the future. Fragmentation was one of the biggest reasons why I didn’t buy an Android phone because the platform generally seems inconsistent in terms of user experience.

Second problem I have with Android is that alot of high-end phones are increasing screen szie and if you are in the market for anything around 4, you pretty much have to settle for a mid-range and lose out on the experience.

I settled for Windows Phone because buying an Iphone with a contract was flat out expensive and I reasonable alternative was Windows Phone. It provides a similar consistent ecosystem as IOS, but lacks the content and I was fully aware of this when I purchased the phone.

If Nokia and MS get their acts together in order to minimize prices and attract people who arrent interested in getting contracts, I think they can win in this segment.

No wonder some companies are bleeding financially because some of their business decisions are just appalling.

If anybody from Sony, HP or RIM reading this, give me a job as the CEO for one of your companies for free because I bet that I can do a better job than most highly paid CEO:
