What I think Nokia is trying to get from this deal is the infrastructure provided by Microsoft when they make this deal (bing etc.). If they were to move to an android platform all they would receive is a mobile phone OS platform.
Whether or not this will be a smart move in the future is yet to be seen. Personally Android OS seems like a better fit than WP7. Yet again, the windows platform is still in its infancy and it could still provide it self down the road.
