As MeeGo VP Quits, Nokia CEO Taking Calls From Eric Schmidt

News broke this morning that Nokia's executive in charge of MeeGo devices, Ari Jaaksi, resigned last week. This continues a string of high-profile people leaving the world's largest mobile phone company as it attempts to establish an�identity�in the quickly-evolving mobile space. The internal turmoil and the recent hiring of former Microsoft executive Stephen Elop to be Nokia's new CEO has led to quite a bit of speculation that Nokia may turn away from its own operating systems and go with the new Windows Phone OS -- or at least fork its products to have this OS as an�option on top of the upcoming MeeGo. But don't rule out Google's Android OS just yet either. We've heard from a good source that Google CEO Eric Schmidt has called Elop to discuss the possibility of Android running on Nokia phones. We actually heard this information about a week ago, but today's news makes it potentially more interesting. Around the time Jaaksi was resigning, Elop and Schmidt were talking.
