    I liked the note about the BP staff not seeing their visa renewed. Such a situation is typical Russian...we have a lot more after WWII when the Iron Curtain was closed. I would not even think of investing a dime in this country. Reply

    ANDROID IS DEAD

    "I don´t see any reason for Google to continue down the Android path long term now that Nokia has made its move".

    I don´t see any reason for programmers to continue make applications for ANDROID now that Nokia has made its move.

    Nokia Buys Operating System, to Give Away Software to Other Phone Makers [view article]
    @daniel, What do you mean by iPhone SDK developers are independent? they are Apple employees.

    Nokia has a long way to go from one handed devices without touch screen to fancy devices, but they have proven to be not that bad at progressive evolution of the systems.

    Tero might be knowledgeable about Nokia. But his views over the past few years (see old thestreet.com transcripts) on Nokia are hardly objective, and historically overly celebratory of anything they do.. Reply

    Hmm iPhone or some crappy Nokia phone? That's almost a rhetorical question. Reply

    > Strong iPhone sales will only further entrench 3G, driving Nokia's sales higher.

    I guess, this is a "what doesnt kill you will make you stronger" kind of argument for nokia, haha...

    The handset business is lousy - NOK is just a Europroxy for MOT. Better play seems to be the transport guys - who biggest players in the BRIC countries? is international/global telecom better played via a fund or ETF (i.e. DGG)? Thoughts welcome - Happy 4th of July to all. Reply

    Nokia is the MiSFiT of handset stocks. No dramatic growth prospects. The market is theirs to LOSE. Dumped it.

    p.s. Isn't Mark Veverka the shameless hitman who started the bullcrap about Jobs' health?

    I am a bit cautious of any article which is predicated on the phrase "fears that the escalating cost of food (rice) in key emerging markets like China and India are overblown". Those rising costs are not done rising, yet. Reply

    Nokia might be reasonable value in euros but with $ there's a massive currency risk included. Nokia's climb in NYSE has been mostly on EUR over USD advancement in the past 2 years. If and when US gets back on its feet watch Nokia slide steeply down on dollar terms.

    I agree on the view on Asian manufacturers, they're quietly grabbing massive market share while Nokia struggles in the headlines. LG and Samsung are the new ho

    Nokia has been the Don of the EU based GSM Mafia since the mid-1990s. It first tried to discredit CDMA and subsequently tried to defeat ITU/WARC approval of CDMA as the basis for 3G cellular coms. More recently, it has whined and dragged its feet in multiple court cases claiming Qualcomm charges exhorbitant royalties for its CDMA IP. Meanwhile, LG, Samsung and a host of Chinese handset developers/manufacture... have been preparing to send NOK back to its heritage busness: making boots for Finnish fisherman. The Asian handset industry will do to NOK what Sony, Panasonic, Yamaha, et.al. did to Revox and other Scandanavian consumer electronics manufacturers 30 years ago... Reply

    Interesting article. Even though Nokia is trading at 9 times 2009 earnings I don't know if it's really that great of bargain. There is an operating system in the mobile market between strong competitors like Microsoft, Google, Apple and RIM who are making huge bets in this area. I don't know if I Nokia has the know-how or resources to compete with these firms. As Microsoft showed us in the desktop market, making the gas that fuels the boxes is a much better option...That is not the Nokia's advantage right now Reply
