Nokia uses Apple’s Macs, iMovie to announce Microsoft partnership

“When Nokia wanted to convince the world that it would bring consumers ‘stellar hardware and innovative software and great services’ in its partnership with Microsoft, it turned to Apple’s Mac-only iMovie to get word out,” Daniel Eran Dilger reports for AppleInsider.

“A video posted by the company’s NokiaConversations YouTube account presents its new chief executive Steven Elop, formerly the head of Microsoft’s Office-centric Business Division, speaking about how Nokia’s new partnership with Microsoft will ‘create opportunities beyond anything that currently exists,'” Dilger reports. “He may have been referencing the ‘burning platform’ he described Nokia as currently standing upon; Microsoft’s Windows Phone 7 hasn’t been setting anything on fire.”
