Two movie tickets for $12? I appreciate the article is nearly a year old, but come on, where could you get two cinema tickets for $12? I do not remember the last time I spent less than £10 ($14) on a single ticket. Is going to the cinema really that much cheaper on the other side of the pond?

Well, bummer, Nokia went with KaioOS (a.k.a. ex AOSP, ex Firefox).
:( (whatever that is)

Wouldn't it be surprising that a company built by former Nokia employees demonstrates their OS on a counterfeit Nokia device in a professional mobile trade show? I mean, I understand that their story with Nokia is a rocky road, but showing a counterfeit phone in a demonstration stand in one of the biggest mobile congresses would be bold.

It's not too bad that it runs on a fake 3310 in the demo; the specs on that device are somewhat lower which means it should run really smooth on the real thing then :D

Well that's why the labels have been striped off, duh?

But I mean, labels or not, there is no way they can get away with it if they use a counterfeit device in this kind of event full or professionals and media, including people from Nokia. Obviously people will notice that it's not a genuine Nokia phone, nor a random feature phone either. I'm not sure what good it can do, and why not choosing a random feature phone instead if they couldn't get the partnership (or compatibility) with the genuine 3310.

Getting an iPhone for a six year old kid? Isn't that a bit overkill?

If the "where" in your post is not limited to Europe, well, in more than half the landmass of the world I guess.
