Microsoft Spent $7 Billion Purchasing Nokia, How Will that Impact the Xbox One?

CheatCC says, "As reported by several sources, Microsoft today announced its acquisition of Nokia’s products (devices and services) and patents…Clearly, the purchase is a massive boon for MS. As a prominent tablet and phone manufacturer, Nokia aligns with Microsoft’s increasingly interconnected hardware line perfectly and will only extend the corporation’s reach. The buyout indicates that Microsoft is planning to broaden its influence in the smartphone and tablet market, using Nokia as its flagship resource. Microsoft’s surface-tablet line, in particular, stands to benefit from the expansion. Similarly, the $7 billion agreement may prove beneficial for the Xbox One, which, as MS has so ardently demonstrated, is heavily geared towards more than just gaming."
