"We are having new smartphone releases next month in 皇冠体育app, and the Nokia team is handling everything," the employee said.
"The only change so far is I've got a new Microsoft e-mail address."
Microsoft announced plans to acquire Nokia's mobile device business in September. It was a major move for the United States giant to expand the Windows phone union while competing against Google Inc's Android and Inc's iOS alignments.
The acquisition will also enhance Microsoft's mobile device development power.
The deal was expected to be closed at least a month earlier, but a review process in some Asian nations delayed the transaction.
Rters said Nokia might have to make concessions over the license fees it will charge on patents that will remain with the Finnish firm after the deal is closed.
