There’s been a lot of head-shaking going on around the industry over the last day or so since Nokia released their statement (below) to the marketplace.

A super example of why Nokia needs to get tough and get stuck in
Recently someone described me on Twitter as ‘pro-Nokia’. Like you’d label someone ‘right-wing’ or ‘left-wing’. I can’t find the tweet but it really stuck with me.

Bartz: Steve Jobs came back to Apple in 1997 — the iPod came out 4 years later. 3 years after that is the first [...]
My Kingdom For An iPhone Rival
It’s a shame, it really is. By the end of this week, almost every person in my close family will be sporting an Apple iPhone as their primary communications device. Both my parents, both my parents-in-law, my two brothers, my wife and one of her sisters. Of the 10 people in my immediate family, 8 [...]
