Nokia may be the company funneling all its efforts into Windows 8. It seems that all the discussion about Window 8 tablet does not look at the cost of building one. Msft will charge a steep price for the OS and historically intel chip are more expensive. So the question is who can build a window 8 tablet with all those great features that the article talk about and still make money (and remember each one of them cost tons of money to bring to the market and you need to sell a lot of them to spread out the cost per unit). Right now Apple is enjoying tremendous manufacturing cost advantage given the volume lead. Any guess as to how many Window 8 phone will sell in the first year? Nokia can afford to loss some money but not 3 to 4 years on a roll.
