I feel sorry for my neighbor finland.

  Why u feel sorry for them ?

    Because Nokia is a soure of pride in Finland. It means a lot to a small country to have a company like that. And then they made a deal with the devil. And now it's all gone.

      Nokia did not transform from a device company to a software company well enough. A big part of the damage was caused by decisions made long before Elop.

        Very true (OPK was the one who really set Nokia up for failure) but at this point I think it is safe to say that Nokia could certainly have done better under Elop's tenure than it had

    For well over a hundred years, Nokia made Finland proud. It was Finland's Apple. I'm an American and I'm sad that its over too.

      As an American you are proud of Apple? Seriously?

        As an American I am proud of Apple. What is wrong with that?
        • szatkus 12y ago
          There's bunch of big companies in USA which are... you know... less evil and more innovative than Apple.
          • thesimpsons1022 12y ago
            in my opinion, no company has contributed more to modern computers or cellphones than apple.

        I'm proud of my country's technological accomplishments. Apple is a part of that history.

      Well if Nokia had been making Finland proud for over 100 years, they certainly weren't doing it with mobile phones the whole time! ;) Nokia is an extraordinarily tenacious company. They've been pivoting since before pivoting was cool. Nokia still exists in its 3 business lines: Networks, HERE, and their Advanced Technologies business. Now will they ever reach the heights of what Nokia was to consumers around the world? I doubt it. But I've learned to never say never in this world...
