Damn, that's annoying.

Nokia Software Updater for Mac ceases development

Luckily, no problemo for me, via emulated Windows on OS X.

Anyhoo if, IF a Windows 8 Nokia PureView with 41MP sensor comes out, it should be able to yack with Mac, no problemo:

However the rumors indicate that the 41MP sensor will not be in the flagship W8 Lumia:
Another interesting thing to note is its 12.0 megapixel camera. The last Nokia phone to don a 12-megapixel camera was the N8, whose camera was celebrated through tech circles. The question is, can Nokia install a camera of that caliber inside the Lumia 910 whilst maintaining its coveted industrial design? Previously on the N8 camera, the sensor was so large that it protruded outside the main exoskeleton of the device, giving it a some what ungainly look from the rear.

From what we have heard, the Lumia 900 features the same camera module as the N9 and Lumia 800. While these are good camera modules, they fall short of the likes of the iPhone 4S and the Samsung Galaxy S II, an area where Nokia used to dominate. It will definitely make sense for Nokia to release a device with superior photography capabilities as it could differentiate itself from the competition. However, one has to think how much of an upgrade can they provide to the consumer inside the confines of the Lumia 900/800 design language.- Nokia Lumia 910 pops up on Dutch website, boasts 12.0 MP camera | Video & Photo Reviews of Gadgets at BGR India
So, seems to me, 41MP PureView is not going into the flagship W8 Lumia. Instead - at best - the generations old, 12MP version will go in, probably not, more likely it will be the same, inferior camera that is in the Lumia 800/900.
