Welcome Back, Nokia

nokia-balloonsIf my Mom asked me what smartphone to buy right this second, I'd tell her to wait -- wait until the Nokia Lumia 900 is released. It's that good. Windows Phone 7 is that good. It's faster and more idiot-proof than Android and presents core functions like phone calling and messaging better than iOS. Windows Phone is, in my humble opinion, a fantastic product. Nokia has had a rough decade. Trouble started in the States where the company continued to pump budget phones into a market that went upscale. They were an early entrant in the smartphone race, but didn't curate a developer-friendly ecosystem as quickly as others. They were down, out, and looking dead in the water. Then Microsoft floated by and threw out a life preserver worth $250 million. Now, after just one quarter, Nokia is the top dog of the third most popular smartphone platform. That's a great spot to be in.
