2 Minutes with Marko Ahtisaari

Why does all Nokia PR people talk about the Windows Phone Metro UI like it's something new, like they're the ones designing it? They freaking adopted it and had no input into the design whatsoever.

@DuudeWhatDoesMineSay They bash on it in IOS because all IOS has for its menus are icons. Meego has three different pages. Of course it is going to have a menu like any other OS!

The two interviews from Nokia World were great. I love how the questioning was taken out and the best parts of the responses were put together. I probably wouldn't watch a long interview, but distilling it down like this makes it really easy to understand the main ideas in a couple minutes.
