LONDON (MarketWatch) -- Shares of Nokia Corp. fell as much as 11% Friday after the world's largest maker of mobile phones warned that aggressive pricing by some of its rivals, tougher competition at the lower end of the market and a production glitch with one of its products would dent its market share in the third quarter.

Mh, their rivals became very strong. I'm surprised at products from Samsung, maybe for the first time my next phone won't be a Nokia :rolleyes:

The article is about mobile phone segment; besides the fact that the NIT is made by Nokia this has nothing to do with NITs.

In the article also the state of the world economy is mentioned.

It's deja vu all over again!

I don't agree. Without Nokia's position on the mobile phone market they wouldn't experiment with new ideas. The NIT 770 was not a real consumer product ;)

Without profits in their main business it is unlikely they will do much on the NIT with scarce $$

I told them I wouldn't buy their sh*t anymore.

Explanation?

Re: Nokia warns it is losing market share
 

Actually, the NIT is in their mobile division, so, yeah, it has something to do with the NIT.

I'm teetering on this, given Nokia's statements about OGG with regards to patents and their statement that the community should embrace closed source and architectures.. and most importantly, my experience with trying to get replacement parts and stylus (stylii? heh).

The fact that if something breaks, there's no course for me to go through to get the parts to replace easily replaceable parts is infuriating and enough to completely turn me away moreso than anything else that annoyed me. This is a show-stopper of an error on their part.

Maybe that's not his reason, but it might be mine unless Nokia improves in light of increasing competition from vendors who might do a better job of taking care of their customers after they've purchased product and happily spread the brand by word of mouth. It's akin to feeling betrayed.

But I digress, I'd like to know his reasons too.
