Yesterday we got word that Nokia was gearing up to launch an Android powered handset, but were the rumors true? According to Nokia, nope, not at all.

When notified of the rumors, a Nokia spokesperson said that there is “Absolutely no truth to this whatsoever,” and continued with “Everyone knows that Symbian is our preferred platform for advanced mobile devices.” You can’t really blame Nokia, considering how much money and effort they invested into the Symbian platform.

However, will their strong stance on the subject change? What about if/when the industry moves towards open source software?
