Anonymous, 24 Apr 2009Nokia has lost the game. Not just because of Apple, but bec... moreNokia has a partnership with DELL building symbian phones that are high end handsets such as the e71 and e90. the n96 may also be one of it!!! therefore, the symbian OS is up to par with winmo's and mac os of the iphone. the 5800 touchscreen has the latest symbian os.
nokia's strategy is to wait in the dark clouds and shine. the 5800 touchscreen is hot in the market right now. Later, it will be the n97.

At the end of the day they may be selling like hotdogs but Nokia's making peanuts.

therock, 24 Apr 2009funny how people would say that nokia is 5 years behind app... moreNokia has lost the game. Not just because of Apple, but because of Samsung as well.
From this point Nokia will loose more and more marketshare.
Think about it – they don’t have an operating system that can match Apple`s. By the time they develop something they will be so much behind Apple OS like now everything is compared to Windows on PC`s On the other hand, Samsung is going to take their market share in the not smart-phone but touch screen market.
You know, the trouble is with these huge corporations like Nokia is that once they are on top they stop pushing. Stop investing in new technologies, they just trying to make more and more money with the existing technology that they have. For some time this is working but sooner or later a new company will emerge with newer more superior technology and take the lead. This is exactly what happened. Everybody at Nokia were thinking that they can just sit back and relax because they are the number one. Well not for long now.

The have lost a lot of ground in the most profitable parts of the market and have been left with the crumbs.
They really need a good shake up and have to focus on where they are headed in future.
They can only get so far on brand loyalty, which is probably their best asset.

funny how people would say that nokia is 5 years behind apple in regards to smartphones...lol. it is the other way around. apple is still a baby on smartphones! the iphone is just an ipod with a phone.
as far as profit goes, congrats to apple!! However, in the long run NOKIA is ahead of the ball game as i have mentioned.

apple iphone. no matter what good facts may arise from apple about the iphone, nokia is stil ahead of the ball game. apple's target is mostly the young crowd and children. i sold my iphone. why? IT DOESNT FASCINATE ME because it is too common here in the US and it has a weak camera. i prefer to have a handset that is RARE and all-around such as the nokia n95, n93i, and 5800 toucshcreen.
when i am out with my friends at night, no need for me to have a separate camera because i use my n95 to take snapshots in low light and dark areas, while my friends have to carry a camera and their iphones.
the iphone is more of a media phone, while n-series and e-series of nokia are all-around devices or handsets. so iphone fans pipe down and DON'T HATE. ITS is a matter of a PREFERENCE to have a handset.
Notice used iphones being sold on ebay? what does that tell you??? the iphone isnt all that!!!!

Hongdolaxi, 24 Apr 2009Why the iphone users keep asking the other people to accept... moreDid you ever think it might be a reaction to being continuously told it's the worst?
That the people who buy them are stupid, that it's a scam, a con that there's some nutjob conspiracy behind the selling of a phone?
Who here say's it's the best?
All I've seen said is that it's very good at what it does and drawing comparisons between the iPhone and supposedly better products mostly based on ignorance..

I must congrat to Apple. But that's all.
I am not buying mobile phones just because Apple makes profits or vice-versa Nokia because they are loosing it big time.
I am buying it after thorough judgement and I don't give a s**t which brand it is.

Anonymous, 23 Apr 2009The split was 46% International sales, 54% US sales.
Wor... moreI totally agree!
I am repairing mobile phones, mostly Nokia phones. I can confirm as well that for every 10 faulty Nokia`s there is maybe one or less faulty iPhone. You should see those letters I can read about the faulty Nokia phones we get. Anyway… It is absolutely true that iPhone is far-far better quality then any other Nokia. If you don’t need a high end camera on your phone than there is simply no other phone which can be compared to the iPhone.

Why the iphone users keep asking the other people to accept the iphone is the best? it is just not the best!!
If you want the iphone you can pay it and get it, and stop asking the other to accept your opinions, ok?
I think iphone is just another tool for the US government to monitor their people according to many of its apps. I am just feeling sick of telling people where I am or what I am doing.
I NEED SOME PRIVACY!!!

Anonymous, 24 Apr 2009People who have never owned an Apple product do not realize... moreI agree with you
In these forums there's always a debate between people who have had iPhone for a long time... talking about the unique features like SAFARI, GREAT INTERFACE, APPLICATION STORE ..., on the other hand, there are some others having no idea about this, they refrained to buy iPhone because of some missing stuff like BII FTP, MESSAGE 4WARDING!!!, they never have had such experience and can not distinguish the difference between the GENUINE product and it's copies like 5800 ...
I also agree that a whole solution, containing Mac, AirPort, AppleTV, iPhone ... makes the whole life much easier

This report is a bull shit, i am using apple 3G iphone 16GB, but this set gave lots of problems to me, and as far as my PR lot of my freinds have the same problems, bcos softwares not available, etc. etc. and if we get softwares from websites also sometimes it does not work and we have spent lot of money behind this, that is the only reason they are getting profit, but their priority should be to satisfy their customers. and serice, making money comes second , if you are a good business company.and want to stay for long in the cellular market,

NF, 24 Apr 2009please tell me what iphone can do? Play component out video, so far all the Nokia's I've seen can only out put Video via composite.
Charge by USB, come on Nokia phone's have been doing that for years.
Nokia's next big thing has a qwerty Keyboard (like a P900), Touchscreen (like a P900) and Symbian (Like a P900) which SonyEricsson had over 5 years ago, upped to the specs of an N95 which was released 3 years ago.
N97 zzz... nothing new to see here, move along.
How long will it take the Ovi store to reach a billion downloads, especially when a lot of Nokia users will have to start paying for things.
