not only Nokia will be affected by this, but all manufacturers who provided hardware for the WP7. samsung, lg, htc, asus.

it's a given naman eh, Windows 8 is rewritten from scratch. and this is the first MS will be producing their hardware and software ala Apple with the Microsoft Surface.

regarding apps-compatibility, I really don't care even if I have a Lumia 800. main reason I got the Lumia was to test the cloud compatibility of MS Office as well as MS Onenote for WP7, Skydrive and for Windows 7. so far, successful ako sa test ko and I'm ready for MS Surface. now i can have one location of my files for all, WP7, Win7, IOS5 and the upcoming WP8.

it's goodbye memory cards, flash disk for me now.

you guys may wanna sell all your desktops and laptops and ipads, coz they will all be obsolete once MS Surface hits our shoes. grabe ang implementation ng cloud discipline ng Microsoft. even iCloud is no match.
