Nokia- from Vertu to Timbuktoo...




And on the other side of the coin is the Nokia 1100. Great article (URL below) on how most of the world still uses a basic phone, and that users in those parts of the world exist in such furiously enormous numbers that Nokia losing market share in those markets to local players (with low prices and successful bottom up innovation strategies) are of a greater concern to them than their smartphone making inroads with the wealthy human populace. Additonally the writer has an interesting take on what smart phones in these humongous people-packed-economies bursting at the seams with micro-entrepreneurs on BOP budgets but just-in-time assembly+deliverables will need to be about!
