			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Just as the spat with Qualcomm ends, Nokia has started another one.  It really is just one big game of musical chairs for this company.</p>
<p>The Finish company has announced that it&#8217;s splitting up with RIM, the company behind BlackBerry, to go after the top spot in the business phone market.</p>
<p>I wonder if it used the line, &#8220;it&#8217;s not you, it&#8217;s me&#8230; I&#8217;m just not ready for this kind of commitment.&#8221;</p>
<p>According to <a href="http://www.mobiletoday.co.uk/Nokia_has_cut_ties_with_RIM_BlackBerry_brand.html">Mobile</a>, the Nokia E66 and E71will not have the BlackBerry Connect application when launched next week.</p>
<p>As Dirty Harry once said,</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">&#8220;So, I know what you&#8217;re thinking.  Is it using Microsoft Exchange?  You&#8217;ve got to ask yourself one question: &#8216;Do I feel lucky?&#8217; Well, do ya punk?&#8221;</p>
<p>Nokia&#8217;s UK MD, Simon Ainslie, told Mobile:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">RIM are a competitor and have done a reasonable job in a space that is traditionally ours, so it&#8217;s no great surprise that we see this as an opportunity to give consumers a proper choice on what email solution they want.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">&#8216;Our approach is to make email a mass-market proposition for everybody, not just for the corporate boardroom group of individuals where BlackBerry has established itself.&#8217;</p>
