Just mobile devices sold. NSN, HERE MAPS AND ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES are now Nokia's core Units. While the NOKIA BRAND NAME is Licensed to MSFT for 10years. RIP nokia 1 Like |

4llerbuntu: And Agent Elop has completed his work. Mapping assets not part of the deal, dummy. OP clearly says 'phones unit'. |

4llerbuntu: And Agent Elop has completed his work. My thoughts exactly. Elop was blatantly an MSFT mole. I just hope MSFT can do an Xbox-y miracle with it. |

Woke up to see this annoying headline. And I was thinking Nokia was finally on the path to success. Funny enough, I was thinking on getting a lumia but I guess I'm gonna jump ship to Samsung (Note III on my mind). Goodbye Nokia |

There goes my hope of Nokia joining the android train |

texazzpete: HTC in the heydays of Windows Mobile was similar to the iPhone, elitist and expensive. Their marketing wasn't hot because the market was small and those who could afford it knew it. Now in an expanded market pursuing subtle marketing is not cutting it for them. The blame is squarely at their feet not on the OS. 2 Likes |
