Did you know that Nokia poisoned more than 10000 people some time ago and that is a undeniable fact?

You can read more about it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_w..._contamination

Wrong, read it again. The water supply of Nokia (the town) was contaminated. Nothing at all to do with Nokia (the corporation).

Well, my wife is from Nokia (the town, not the corporation), so I am quite familiar with this case...

I believe you already do that in a way, it's called Vertu

If NSN does business that can (for whatever reason) adversely affect the Nokia brand (and vice versa), operates on a different market, then NSN should have been (*originally*) given a name that differentiates/shields Nokia from it. It doesn't matter what you do with the name *now*, since the damage, big or small, is already done).

Hmmm... I'll have to write it down and pin it to my handlebars.

That way I can read it when I'm checking email at a long stoplight while out cycling.

and? to my understanding, you're still mixing the town of nokia with nokia the corporation. if it is true that the corporation did not have anything to do with the water crisis, then i'd see it most fit to simply delete the above mentioned comments. totally uncalled for to imply guilt by association.

Sounds like numerology.. with NAMES! Quick.. associate everything that has ANY kind of similarity!

Not to say about those who don't usually wear any kind of backpack and must rely on their trusty pockets for convenient "entertainment-device-for-long-tube-rides" storage.

I think the N900 or one of the next tablets is going to look like this one row keyboard device that Nokia got a patent application for.
patent app # 20090137279 .

http://appft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-P...LD2=TTL&d=PG01

The images are in tiff format so if quicktime pops up and you see no image you'll have to find a way to remove quicktime handling tiffs (happens to me) and install alternatiff plugin for your browser.
I think the website is alternatiff.com

Converted image from tiff using free online converter
http://www.coolutils.com/Online-Image-Converter.php#
and then uploaded it to photobucket.

Nokia owns part of it, and Siemens owns part of it. So it is not a "completely different company".
