One of the most enticing
"what-ifs" of recent years has come true: Microsoft has purchased
Nokia's devices and services unit, bringing the Lumia lineup under the
Redmond roof. The move unites Windows Phone 8 with its biggest hardware
supporter, giving the company the integrated mobile offering it's been
looking for with Surface and other devices. When the deal closes in the
first quarter of 2014, Microsoft will pay €3.79 billion for Nokia's business, plus another €1.65 billion for its portfolio of patents. (The €5.44-billion total is considerably less than Microsoft paid for Skype
in 2011.) 32,000 people are expected to transfer from Nokia to
Microsoft, including 18,300 that are "directly involved in
manufacturing."

Nokia has vehemently denied that they have a
Windows 8 powered tablet in the pipeline, although developers do seem to
work against Nokia’s favor as they on the other hand, keep on leaking
it, so we as consumers remain up in arms. Is Nokia going to churn out a
Windows 8 tablet for the masses, or are they not going to do so? The
latest development on a potential Windows 8 tablet by Nokia sees a
developer write that he was one person who helped design a proposal for
an exclusive Nokia Tablet app.
Considering how the Finnish smartphone company’s Lumia handsets are
full of exclusive apps which seem to work in the Windows Phone 8
ecosystem, it would not be a stretch of the imagination to see Nokia
work on something similar, albeit in the tablet format. The same
developer said, “Helped design and concept the Adidas micoach app
proposal for the Nokia Tablet. The Tablet App intended to be an
extension of coaches allowing them to build teams and monitor individual
trainings for each athlete. The way that works is to connect the app to
existing technology on Adidas products to read the workout data
registered by cell chip implants. The app also tapped into the community
allowing users to challenge each other by sending notifications to
friends and their social feeds” What do you think?
