Interview with Chris Weber; Nokia US customers, he's the reason you wont be getting an N9

VentureBeat interviewed Nokia USA President Chris Weber on a variety of topics, including the availability of the Nokia N9 in the US: The interview came on the heels of Nokia’s confirmation earlier in the day that it is killing its Symbian operating system, and also that it won’t be releasing the company latest N9 phone in the U.S. The N9, a phone built on an operating system called Meego, was an experiment and won’t be replicated, Weber confirmed in the interview. As a person familiar with a fair number of US consumers and their experiences with Microsoft's mobile offerings, this decision by Nokia USA to focus exclussively on Windows Phone at the exclussion of all other offerings certainly stinks of Microsoft plants and likely wont end well for Nokia. Whether it's ultimately to Microsoft's benefit in the long term we'll have to wait and see.
