Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
I don't want even a cent of my tax money spent on Elop's dream of mediocrity. We are already wasting billions of national wealth on PIIGs. That is enough money wasted on mismanaged cluster****s.
If goverment should do anything due to Nokia blow up, it should offer start-up money to new businesses that are now popping up from ex-Nokians and to existing small businesses that are looking to hire ex-Nokians.

Since this is the most trendy Doom & Gloom thread at the moment, I'll add this bit of news. The Economist doesn't see much future for Nokia either. New report from The Economist intelligence unit:
Nokia's final days?
A takeover of the world's biggest phone maker is becoming more likely with each passing quarter.
<snip>
At the same time as he threw in his lot with Microsoft, Mr Elop split Nokia into two distinct units—one focusing on the development of smartphones and the other on the manufacture of more basic handsets for the mass market. Such an arrangement may smooth the way for a takeover of the former by Microsoft and the latter by an Asian player targeting emerging markets. A company like Samsung, meanwhile, might be interested in both parts of the business. Source
Good catch. I had forgotten about that.
We'll I guess there's hope for intervention by Central Bank of India. Lots of Indians without proper traditional bank account stand to lose several Rupees if Nokia Money goes broke.

With all the internet news going on and much faster than people read it and can post on a thread here i think it is obvious we do not need reminding constantly but if you lot feel the need too then so be it, do not let me stop you

Heading there? Hell yes.
But if it will get there is where I have doubts. I mean, if the EU can bail out Greece, I'm sure they'll do the same for Nokia.
Maybe.
European needs a tech company too.
Hell US is has already to much control of european. I mean Google, Microsoft;facebook.... and soo on..
So european must start fight and also make it own cool stuff. But I guess many has already given up :-(

Nokia's slogan shouldn't be the pedo-palmgrabbing image with the slogan, "Connecting People"... It should be one hand open pleadingly with another hand giving the middle finger and the more apt slogan, "Potential Unrealized." --DR
