TaskuMuro (http://taskumuro.com/), a Finnish tech news site, has anonymously interviewed various Nokia employees and pieced together an interesting timeline of the events which led to the abandonment of the Nokia MeeGo platform (http://taskumuro.com/artikkelit/the-story-of-nokia-meego)and to Nokia's current affiliation with Microsoft and Windows Phone. It appears the MeeGo project was rather disorganized from the get-go and fell victim to the company's internal tug-of-war, aimless management causing several UI redesigns and a none-too-wise reliance on Intel components which lacked some key features – namely, LTE (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LTE_(telecommunication)) support.
