Nokia quite simply didn't have the technology to compete -- Symbian isn't up to the task their Linux offerings needed to be solid about 4 years ago to be relevant now. I'm not sure they sat out, they just didn't get it to together.

I think if they fail with MS, they would have failed with every other option as well. MS is the best option but it is perhaps much too late.
