I think it would be a good move

Nokia really should consider migrating to Android as a platform. The reasons:

1. Android is open source, so Nokia could recreate their own "user experience" on top of it (much like HTC has done with the Hero & Lenovo is doing with the OPhone). Nokia could even replace Google's services with Ovi services.

2. Android would move Nokia smartphones to a Linux kernel, which is stable, fast, scalable & would have drivers for current & future hardware components.

3. Android is being prep'd for smartbooks/netbooks/MIDs, so Nokia would be able to offer these products, as well.

4. Android would allow Nokia to focus on great devices, apps & services (real revenue), while the OHA members (which Nokia could become) & the Android community share the development & support costs of the base platform.
