基本上跟之前比爾蓋天的比起來

美國鄉民們的火力基本上都主攻wp為主
(嘛~這也是理所當然的)

因為還滿多的，所以只簡略翻譯幾個自己覺得重要的回答

-------------------------------------

Q1:Can you provide some clarity around the rumours that Nokia is to rebrand to
Microsoft Mobile? Microsoft has a license to use the Nokia brand for some 10
years, but that doesn't mean it has to (as far as I can see). What are the
chances of Nokia being renamed as the company integrates into Microsoft?
(是否可以請ELOP出來澄清到底 Nokia是否要改名成Microsoft Mobile?)

A1:Microsoft Mobile Oy is a legal construct that was created to facilitate the
merger. It is not a brand that will be seen by consumers. The Nokia brand is
available to Microsoft to use for its mobile phones products for a period of
time, but Nokia as a brand will not be used for long going forward for
smartphones. Work is underway to select the go forward smartphone brand 
(Microsoft Mobile 只是單純的一個我們行動裝置子公司的名稱，甚至連品牌都稱不上
Nokia這個"品牌名稱"目前允許微軟在一段時間內使用於行動裝置上，但Nokia這個
"品牌名稱"將不會在"未來"的智慧型手機中出現)

Q2: What will be the new brand name for future windows phone handsets?

(這題沒有回答XDDD)
.

.
Q7: How about Nokia X future after acquisition?
(關於 Nokia X合併後未來的走向?)

A7: Microsoft acquired the mobile phones business, inclusive of Nokia X, to help
connect the next billion people to Microsoft's services. Nokia X uses the
MSFT cloud, not Google's. This is a great opportunity to connect new
customers to Skype, outlook.com and Onedrive for the first time. We've
already seen tens of thousands of new subscribers on MSFT services.
(簡而言之，因為 Nokia X是使用AOSP，所以其實不需要甩google的規範
而目前也是一個好機會將自家服務整合到android手機中)

Q8: Hi Stephen, Nice to see you being part of Microsoft again. When will we get
the first Microsoft branded Smartphone? (round-about)
(何時我們才會見到第一台"微軟牌"智慧型手機?(乳摸))

A8: Thanks! I am very excited to be back at MSFT along with my Nokia colleagues.
Now that we are One company, the marketing and product folks will lay in the
plans for the shift to a consistent brand. While we are not ready to share
precise details, i can assure you that it will not be the "Nokia Lumia 1020
with Windows Phone on the AT&T LTE Network" ... too many words! That somehow
doesn't roll off the tongue..
(...講了一串才發現其實是"無可奉告"XDD)

當然，中間也有酸民酸他"身為木馬在工作上有沒有什麼困擾"之類的無禮問題

不過CEO果然還是脾氣不錯(話術很好XD)

整合一下重點(黃字)以及我自己的想法(紅字)

1. 雖然Nokia在推特上表明品牌名稱會繼續使用

不過從問答中多少感覺的道名稱被改其實只是時間的問題罷了

有點像是追尋sony-erricson -> one sony的模式

2. 對於之後要推什麼品牌名稱無可奉告

(個人覺得最有可能是Lumia單獨留下來啦~

雖然之前一直想要surface phone

不過Lumia ICON這個名稱也很不錯(只可惜這個是verizon限定的名稱)

可以維持個每年一旗艦，像是lumia Icon 1, 2 ...好像也不錯?)

3. 原本的Nokia 服務(專屬APP等)都會留著

不過原班人馬將會加入現在新的微軟公司

也不確定是否會更改名稱

----
BTW, theverge也透漏今年會出一支codename 是 superman

但有500畫素前鏡頭的中階 4.7吋 wp

個人不負責猜測應該是730 (逃~)
