The Sunday Times has put together an interesting profile on Nokia, published on the eve of MWC. It looks at their position and market share, and takes a pretty even look at where the Finnish company is at the moment. It’s interesting that the story, while framed by the emerging markets of India, compares Nokia to Apple and the service cultures that are growing from each company.

OK, as it goes. But I can't begin to take it seriously when it fails to distinguish the difference between a sim card and a memory card and what exactly the functions of each are.
What can I say, it is just another bad article written by a guy who doesn't get his facts right. From basic fail in the sense of not being able to distinguish a memory card from a sim card to the epic fail knowledge about what Nokia has been up to lately, it's soaring smartphone sales in Q4 2009 etc.etc.
Typical US tech blog bullshit, that doesn't really matter in the long run, and who in the rest of the world cares about the recession hit US, anyway. That market is a shadow of it's former self, and has been for quite a few years now.
I don't know where you're from, but the Times is a British newspaper. Thus the .co.uk
Still it's tripe..
"It has struggled in America, where it is facing patent lawsuits"
Do they mean the patent lawsuit that Apple countered with, after Nokia *sued them first*?
I'm not sure how it's typical US BS, given that the article was written by an author in the UK for a publication based in the UK.
Fact is, Nokia is fairly rudderless.
