That is exactly right! He left because he knows that the EXCLUSIVITY deal they have with AT&T is the dumbest move they could have probably done.

The Nokia Lumia 920 is a VERY sexy & brilliantly made WP8. To limit it's exposure to just AT&T is going to severely hamper it's success. Now if Nokia & Microsoft would have released this monster phone to the masses he may STILL be here & we would not be talking about this at all.

Microsoft just sabotaged themselves by only selling their BEST WP8 device the Nokia Lumia 920 with AT&T.

FAIL is the only word I can come up with.

What i think is that nokia should have made some kind of deal with microsoft according to which microsoft would grant them some exclusive features or extras that would differentiate it as an exclusive windows phone manufacturer. seems only fair coz unlike others nokia has devoted full priority to windows phone. but they didnt and now look, devotion gone down the drain. Its better if nokia uses android as well as windows phone to get some profit for investment in R&D for windows phone then make its exclusive apps for the platform that would truly make their windows phones stand out among other manufacturers'. and then when they have a firm footing in the market, they can do as they please with android.
