Prolific leaker evleaks, whose stock in trade is smartphone-related rumors,
has said that Microsoft is going to produce a Lumia phone running Android, branded "Nokia by Microsoft."
This isn't the first time that this kind of rumor has been floated, with both Windows and Windows Phone talked of as candidates for running Android apps. The logic is very simple: developers aren't writing apps for Windows's Metro environment or Windows Phone. They are writing apps for Android. Put those apps on Windows and Windows Phone and the app problem is instantly solved.
