device makers and not just on the phone, but the tablet and the pc side and companies like dell and lenovoers have been fundamental to our success. what is good for windows phone we believe is good for the overall windows ecosystem. >> is this a good deal for microsoft? joining us is carly fiorina joining us on the phone. >> good morning, kelly. >> if it was windows intell intell, and is nokia at the new pa partnership here? >> well, i'm not sure. on the one hand i think it is sort of logical, and microsoft has lots of cash. banning on the fact that they will make more acquisitions, and nokia has been a long time partner, and on the other hand nokia has 15% of the share of the cell phone market, and 3% of the smartphone market and 32,000 employees who are coming over. i think that one of the reasons that their share has been dwindling is because the platform, the microsoft platform hasn't kept up with the tee chuchur -- features or the applications of samsung or appel. so i'm not sure it is a great strategy going forward, but it is logical given what microsoft says they are tri tying to do

we have some tech players like lenovo. we just heard from a board member yesterday who said, qualway hasn't considered any acquisitions. >> thank you. blackberry, is this worth a trade, this magical november deadline for an auction or maybe a fire sale? >> i think the company has been for sale for four years. they just haven't explicitly said it. if they had an offer, they might have taken it. they have to sell the whole company. there's a lot of murmurings that the bankers might get a deal done for a piece of it. nobody wants the other piece. i don't think there's any value if they can't find a strategic buyer. the problem is it narrows the list substantially. >> they say they narrowed the list but maybe the list was narrowed for them. >> they tapered their own list. >> an interesting note if terms of thei intellectual property. that it's not going to be worth anything to anybody unless they also own the hand set business. >> and again i go back to we've seen significant shareholder activism in the technology space in the

we cover a lot of the chinese companies like lenovo and there's at some point some chatter that theyackberry. and fairfax seemed to come out of nowhere. >> fairfax is the largest individual shareholder with about 10% of blackberry shares. so thief got a defensive position that they need to take, as well. and i would look at this as putting a line in the sand that is telling the markets that at $9, there is a buyer going well through due diligence. but, you know, we saw share price yesterday close just under that $9 mark which suggests that the market doesn't actually believe that there is going to be a competing bid that will be higher than that $9. but in general, i would think other than fairfax's very committed shareholder and certainly a big canadian private equity or insurance in private equity player, i think it would be more like loy a strategic player that will come in if anyone else that does want these assets. >> they talked about how they might concentrate on the enterprise market which is a space they used to own, james. but i wonder, if the market is the future going to

perhaps there was a time when folks thought lenovo or on other smartphonemaker might be interested. you think? >> i think $2.47 billion is not high of a price point. they're valuing the brand name and all the global relationships, etcetera, at less than $1 billion. the sad story about blackberry is everyone starts to feel like it's a game called catch a falling knife. every day, it looks like less of a good dye deal and more of a problematic story. it looks to me like a story that gets worse by the minute. on the other hand, i think it's possible you get another bid, although we would see it pretty soon if at all. >> so with all the bad news we have heard, at least a small glimmer of hope that that poor waterloo company close to my hometown. thank you very much for that. >>> just diving into this bond auction, italy has sold 6 billion euros that they're trying to get out there to the market in terms of government paper. it's had a range of 5 to 6 billion, but it's gone right at the top end of that. in terms of some of these numbers, the ten-year bond auction deal is the highest sinc

just on the phone side, but particularly on the tablet and pc side, where companies like dell and lenovo and hp and many, many others have been fundamental to our success. what is good for windows phone, we think will be good for the overall windows ecosystem. >> so trying to make it very clear there, he's not trying to block out other hardware manufacturers for working with windows phone or windows 8. still wants to welcome them. that strategy reminiscent of what google tried to do post the motorola mobility acquisition. i asked him specifically about what microsoft's getting with stephen elop, the ceo of nokia until this transaction was announced, he has stepped down to a senior vice president position over the devices and services group. microsoft plans to put him in charge of all of hardware once this deal closes, which they hope will happen before april. that would be not just the existing nokia business, also xbox and any other hardware that microsoft is working on. ballmer said he thinks very highly of elop, that obviously he knew him when elop worked for him three years ago, but
