Probably not this proposal, but there are a couple scenarios that could lead to Nokia being a takeover target:
1. Microsoft's activist shareholders tanking the deal, perhaps by pointing out that buying Nokia's factories and the whole legacy handset business including Series 30 and Asha is pretty crazy.
2. Nokia's board concluding that, now that they are rid of Elop, could reboot Nokia themselves: spin Jolla back in, and start selling Sailfish and Android smartphones.
