I have read it and am fairly confident I understand it.

My point was basically that the lower end markets here is the smartphone market.

I agree though it might be a stretch as I am turning the metrics upside down. But I don't think it changes the fundamental point.

That Nokia is turning themselves out of business by making the "right" decisions.



In what possible way can making a shitty phone and then lying about its capabilities in marketing materials be considered 'making the "right" decisions'?


That's not what I was referring to with my TID comment but the focus on selling large quantities of "dumb" phones because that is where the largest revenue (still) is.

This affect their lack off proper focus on the smart phones. They can't get exited about the numbers so to speak.

But as I said, it might be a stretch to use that term here, I still stand by it.


Ah, alright, fair point. Maybe we could coin a new term: "The HighVolumeProfitableCrapMonger's Dilemma"


Hah! That's a keeper.
