| The world's largest mobile phone maker Nokia

Nokia "not prepared" for smartphone onslaught; could sell its handset business

,----[ Quote ]
| In an interview published this morning in the 
| German magazine Wirtschaftwoche, Mr. Vanjoki, 
| who is also Nokia's head of marketing, admits 
| too that his company needs to work harder to 
| improve its mobile Internet products if it is 
| to to stay in contention with the likes of 
| Apple, Google and Research in Motion - the 
| manufacturer of the increasingly popular 
| Blackberry PDAs.

âAnd the survey says: Nokia N900 is a developers dream!

,----[ Quote ]
| Because the Nokia N900 is based on a Linux OS
| it is completely open-source, which means
| apps no longer have to be based solely on the
| Symbian platform. In this sense, the N900
| opens up Nokia to a whole new cattle of
| developers, which means a load of new,
| innovative, and useful applications, widgets
| and features for the N900. But donât just
| take our word for itâ
