Nokia (which makes phones and internet tablets) and Microsoft (which makes a mobile OS and about a billion other things) have called a press conference tomorrow to announce an 'alliance'.
At 1500 UK time the two tech giants will seemingly put down their Symbian and Windows Mobile swords, link arms and march to meet the world's media. For a reason we cannot fathom.
This is the cryptic clue sent out in a press release: "Stephen Elop, president of Microsoft Business Division, and Kai Öistämö, executive vice president for Nokia Devices, announce alliance."
