Nokia resurrects Meego-based phone for survival

What might be the savior after Nokia's decision to drop Symbian and shift its focus on other mobile platforms? For quite a long time, we assumed it would it Meego or any others. The bottom line: it could not be Android since the antipathy of this Finnish company to Android is more than obvious.

But when the Meego-running  Nokia N9 finally let out, Nokia surprised all by announcing that N9 will the only Meego-running smartphone that this phone maker ever made and no more Meego-based handsets will come out. So it might be the whole story: Nokia N9 is the swan song of Meego, which obviously disappointed those Meego lovers. The close tie of Nokia and Microsoft tells us that Windows will be the sole of focus, which may lead the company to renaissance.

Nokia is notoriously knonw to capture and dominate the market by its affordable Symbian-based low-end handsets. While it is only a time of matter for Nokia to end the Symbian and Windows is not a mobile platform meant for low-end devices due to some intrinsic reason, what will Nokia to choose to recapture the increasingly losing low-end market share? Retreat to the harbor of Meego seems not so hard a decision.

Some insiders reveal that Nokia is now in efforts in two new low-end Meego-based smartphone to achieve the goal of Next Billion strategy. Since the knot of Nokia and Microsoft, Nokia's mobile division has been divided into two departments, one team is for Window Phone and the Next Billion is for the product lines of S40 and Asha.

Window Phone team focuses on the high-end devices while the Next Billion aims at low-end affordable phones. There is little thing that Nokia's Windows Phone can do to combat Android's enlarging low-end market, and even for the relatively affordable Lumia 610, which is also not suitable for low-end market due to various reasons. So now only Meego, which actually enjoys great popularity among users, become the successor of the dying Symbian. It seems that Nokia N9 will not feel lonely since it has two little brothers to come.
