Three horse race now? Let's not call that until we get there. Some trite 
observations:

The market responded to this news.... by dropping Nokia down 18%.

Nokia's workforce responded to this news.... by staging a mass walkout.

As someone I can't recall offhand said: "Two turkeys don't make an eagle".


This *MIGHT* turn Nokia and Microsoft as distant also-rans into a contender. 
Maybe. If they release the phones and the market buys them, *and starts 
using them as an actual smartphone*, I'll call them a horse. Until then, 
I'll continue to call them 2 lame ducks. (Nokia's principal problem right 
now - nobody treats their phones as smartphones no matter what nokia says, 
so when these people want smartphone features, instead of using their 
already smart nokia phone, they buy a Samsung Galaxy S or an iPhone 4).
