"Nokia is now on track to release at least one Windows Phone handset in 2011 with a dozen more in 2012."

A dozen!

With a dozen models on the market how are customers supposed to choose?

Nokia should slow down and put as much TLC as possible into 1 or 2 products next year. Make each immaculate instead of figuring you can fix your mistakes in next month's model.

Nokia distributes different models to different parts of the world.

Has having numerous models from a variety of manufacturers really hurt Android in terms of sales ?

Are you suggesting that the number of models of an item that a company produces should in some way be comparable to the total number of models on the market?

I'm not sure what you mean, sorry.

What I was trying to say was that I don't think having 12 models is going to make things confusing for consumers or be detrimental to sales.

HTC/Samsung/Motorola releases a lot of Android phones in a given year and it hasn't hurt their sales.

Edit: It must be noted that it isn't likely that any single market will have a dozen Nokia models available to the public.
