            Terrible news. And Nokia really sucks at selling, selling it to such a consortium for way less then what you paid in the first place, yes ladies and gents this is the amazing Nokia. No wonder they are barely afloat.

                    if it happened, lets hope it won't be exclusive for cars only. It should always be available for mobile phones.
