Nokia Losing its Cell Phone Dominance

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the fighting-to-keep-up dept.

supersandra writes "The Boston Globe is reporting that Nokia is struggling to offer features, such as cameras and flip-phones, that are luring customers away to phones by other brands such as Motorola, Samsung, and Siemens. While Nokia used to account for 1 in every 3 phones sold worldwide, they are down to 28.9 percent. Nokia plans to bring 35 new phone models to market this year to win back more users."

    Nokia is DOS to Sony Ericsson's Macintosh. Nokia just can't get a windows to market. They're stuck on their crappy UI designed for small black and white screens. All they did when color came out on big screens was color their same crappy UI and make the text bigger. Its probably too late for Nokia, they lost. Sob Sob.
