So you would say 2mln Lumia 900 for Q2 (AT&T + foreign)?
And so about 4 mln Lumias for Q2, then 6 mln in Q3? They need to replace ~8mln per quarter Symbian sales that are going to zero, OK, maybe not zero but 2mln max by Q3?

Considering that they are still selling over 70M basic phones per quarter, I guess we need to know what's gonna happen in that land too. If they can't keep this number at least flattish with at least minimal margins, smartphones may not be enough to pull things through.

>but my sense is that you are being optimistic below.
I tend to concur.

For those who do not have subscribe to any significant search/click stats, one can also look for Nokia in the social world, first to calibrate and then to project. It can help make a somewhat more continuous projection.

Android and iPhone on Facebook can already provide a feel of benchmark numbers although you can see that I am mixing OS and device here. Unfortunately, I could not find any direct or clean comparison.
