I'm No Henry Blodget But. . .

Nokia's stock is getting pounded after Elop announced the partnership with Microsoft. Analysts hate it and say they should have partnered with Google.

I don't know about that.

For my tastes, Android is like a complicated version of the iPhone. The experience is all right, but it seems very "me too" compared with the iPhone. Visually both the iPhone and Android interface are starting to seem dated. Microsoft's Windows Phone 7 is still not fully baked, but has a refreshing take on the interface and reviews from geeks say it is fast and enjoyable to use. Nokia's hardware was never the problem. It's their awful approach to the user experience that is their achilles heel.

Maybe I'm missing something. I'm probably missing something.

Whatever.

I'm keeping an eye on it.
