Wow. That's the biggest load of empty corporate-speak I've read in a long time. If I didn't already believe Nokia is doomed, this would have convinced me.

I was just going to comment on that very same thing. The guy is only a day into the job, so what does he know, but didn't offer anything that would lead one to conclude they Nokia is changing anything. He didn't address the problems brought up by symbian-guru at all.

I think the headline is misleading - is sais nowhere in the article that this is a response to symbian-guru

He mentions the well-known defection halfway through the article.

Exactly! "I am committed, etc etc." It's funny how familiar these sound (it would be an interesting exercise to collect all such MBA-ese statements from execs and search for patterns).
If Nokia's only big card is their partnership with Intel on MeeGo they are indeed doomed. Intel is hedging its bets (Android set to boxes and the like) and it doesn't care.

"Over the coming months, we’ll be advancing current projects and working to simplify the way we work in order to deliver products and services faster, and with a laser focus on quality."
That sentence is particularly vacuous. Who do they think they are fooling with crap like that?
