No surprise here, but that you would be able to officially mark Nokia World 2011 down as must-watch TV. Andy Lees just confirmed here on stage at AsiaD that the London-based event, which kicks off on October 26th, would be the launchpad for Nokia’s Windows Phones. Yes, phones. As in, plural. He specifically stated: “[Nokia will] have differentiating hardware and software.” We’ve already caught lots of sneak peeks at what can be on tap , and you’ll bet we’ll be reachable to bring you the main points as they’re poured out. First Mango , now Nokia. Seems like it will become quite the vacation season for the WP7 department.
Update: Here is a quote near the tip of the interview from Andy. “Nokia will announce its rollout plans with Windows Phone, among other things. They made an evaluation early on, and saw our roadmap for this year and next year, and it decided to bet the complete company on Windows Phone according to that. We have seen that other hardware makers have seen this occurrence as an accelerant, which in turn helps both Microsoft and Nokia. I’m also curious about naming some new OEMs so as to be coming onboard [with WP7].”
