The authors further explain that Meltemi originated as a research project in 2010 under then-CEO <a href="/wiki/Olli-Pekka_Kallasvuo" title="Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo">Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo</a>; that "Clipper" was to be a device sibling to the <a href="/wiki/Nokia_Lumia_610" title="Nokia Lumia 610">Nokia Lumia 610</a>; that a <a href="/wiki/Tablet_computer" title="Tablet computer">tablet</a> device for developing markets was planned; and that it was part of the company's "Next Billion" programme, much like what the Asha platform would become. In addition in June 2012 it was announced that a Nokia R&D centre in <a href="/wiki/Ulm" title="Ulm">Ulm</a>, Germany, where apparently much development took place, would close down in cuts. The book states that the main reason of Meltemi's cancellation was that the costs of bringing it to market would have hit the company's cash assets too hard, at a time when they were already financially struggling.<sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading
