    Verrry unlikely. Just the same as the Nokia-to-use-Android rumours were. They've got more than enough OSes at the moment, with S40, S60, Symbian (several versions on the go right now), and MeeGo. They're very into collaborative development, with their open source Symbian and MeeGo platforms, but they still like to be in a leading position, not buying in other people's stuff.

    They did use Windows on their Nokia Booklet, but that was different, being a laptop. I can't think that there'd be any hardware that can run WP7 that couldn't run Symbian or MeeGo, so there can't be a hardware niche for them to choose WP7 for. And being a brand-new platform, WP7 wouldn't work as a tactical choice for getting a product to market quickly using an existing platform.
