Stopping that deal would have made the world a lot better place, actually! N9 was awesome, and during the first half a year of Windows Phone based Nokia phones, N9 sold more than all of those combined. Even though N9 was never advertised anywhere at all!
It was simply a killer product that people wanted to use so much that no advertising was necessary.
