If you had a choice between something like a Windows mobile phone, Apple iPhone, or Blackberry and a Nokia for free. I don?t think many would take the Nokia.
It just seems to me there are two factors that have kept them competitive, cost and maybe battery life. As battery life increases and costs plummet, it doesn?t look good for Nokia. They?re like the old tiger games we used to buy as kids; you got them because you couldn?t afford the alternative. These days I hardly see them because a game boy can be bought used for the same price.
The problem for Nokia won?t be making something new, it will be finding a foothold in a market where a new standard has already been set.
