Could Nokia embrace Android?

Nokia_thumbRecently Nokia’s CEO Stephen Elop while discussing about the Q4 performance stats, said – "There are multiple ecosystem patterns that need to be considered." This statement as many claim, could be a hint that Nokia are considering a shift from Symbian to another platform, probably Android. But would Nokia go all out and ditch Symbian and MeeGo to make Android based smartphones?

Nokia have not been the dominant force in the cell phone industry like they once used to be. Android and iOS based phones have given Symbian a run for their money, ultimately leaving them behind. If Nokia would actually embrace Android, we could see plenty of happy faces.

Nokia could also go for the Windows Phone 7 platform instead of Android or could choose both. Elop said that we’d learn more about their future decisions next month, probably after the MWC starting in a month.
