Could this brain dead move be the end of Nokia as an independent company and a prelude to a take over by Microsoft?
HTC was a nobody of a company when they offered just windows mobile but when they switched to Android they became a household name.
I saw the WP7 demo and I nearly threw up I really hope they don't plan on having WP7 on every high end phone as maemo unlike WP7 was pretty good.
Also is it me or is Steve Ballmer a complete idiot?

Ballmer owns but he can't run a company worth a damn

Anyway.. yeah, let's hope MeeGo is the long term plan and WP7 isn't here to stay. Far too iOS like with all the limitations.
such an inspirational speaker.
Ballmer is great at marketing.
can't really get to where he is by being an idiot.

Exactly why is this a stupid move for Microsoft? I could see you arguing it's a dumb move for Nokia, but this is a solid deal for Microsoft.

That's what I said it's a dumb move for Nokia lets adopt the least popular phone OS and sign a deal with a company well known for predatory practices.
For Microsoft it's very clever but I still think Windows phone will never gain significant market share even with the Nokia brand name.
You can polish a turd but in the end it's still a piece of shit.
I found more sauce on the story it seems it's actually a desperation move on Microsoft's part to save a failing platform by hitching it to a well known brand.

Expect the screen of Nokia's handphones to turn more blue in the future.

I predict Nokia's present CEO Stephen Elop will likely be forced to step down in shame before the end of the year.

Is it me, or does that image make them look like they're appearing on the Jeremy Kyle show?

(one of the random things you'll see) "Sell Stephen Elop to Microsoft ".
A great number of investors have already suggested some radical changes, one of them being getting rid of mr. Stephen Elop. The other being getting rid of win7 and getting more developers to work on Symbian/MeeGo.
Then they realised that even in numbers that they can't get anything done, they need the big investors to stand behind them and that's not going to happen.
Nevertheless, the responses that we received from institutional investors were not encouraging. These institutions have a fiduciary responsibility to their customers and are legally bared from supporting radical initiatives like seating a bunch of kids on the board of directors. If they do not agree with Nokia’s plans, they are better off simply divesting and putting their money in other companies that better fit their investing strategy (which is exactly what they have been doing).
