I said ASPs and margins. I didn't say units. They may sell more units but at lower ASPs and lower margins. They lost money in Q2 on D&S. You figure out what they will do with lower ASPs and lower GMs in Q3. BTW, Android in Q2 had as much growth in market share as WP did. And WP is still in the single digits. Everyone can see which ecosystem has taken off like a rocket while WP is still riding on a ford Edsel. Nokia will be announcing Android phones this time next year. Mark my words. WP is a failure.

NOK's ASP in Q2 = $44.58

Actually, that was 44.58 EURO ($60). I think it's unlikely actually that Nokia grows both mobile devices ASP and units sequentially, although I will take management at its word that the product of ASP & units increases (resulting in higher top line in D&S). Mid-tier phones are still under a lot of pressure, and the 52x is probably helping but not recapturing all the defectors.
