| Nokia powers as competition wilts
While rivals are foundering, the Finnish giant's market share passed 40 per cent at the end of 2007 and could already be closer to 42 per cent, analysts say. Either way, chief executive Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo is hungry for more. Nokia sold 437 million phones last year, 26 per cent more than in 2006 and almost as many as its four nearest rivals combined. There are now 1 billion Nokia phones in use around the world - one in every three. Nokia's lean logistics system means it swallows up 70 per cent of the profit from phones sold by the big five. It is still best known for its trademark block handset, which can be mass-produced cheaply and shipped in giant volumes to new markets. That's how the giant can make a profit from phones that sell for only 20 ($44) in those markets.
Unlock Nokia Mobile Phones with New No-Key Nokia X-SIM – So Easy, Even a 5-Year Old Can Do It
Similar to unlocking an iphone, the new No-Key Nokia X-SIM can unlock Nokia mobile phones that operate with a SIM card, allowing phones to work in any network. Hong Kong (PRWEB) February 25, 2008 - A new product, compatible with most DCT4 and BB5 Nokia mobile phones, allows users to bypass the lock and utilize different service providers. The No-Key Nokia X-SIM, available at www.one-stop-china.com, can unlock Nokia mobile phones that operate with a SIM card, allowing phones to work in any network. Most mobile phone service operators sell their Nokia mobile phones locked and the user must buy the phone together with the operators service package. With the No-Key Nokia X-SIM, the user can allow their Nokia mobile phone to utilize other networks where the airtime is cheaper.
Nokia unwraps bendy nanotech phone
Nokia and the University of Cambridge jointly designed a concept mobile phone that allows users to mould the handset into different shapes. Dubbed Morph, the handset has been designed to demonstrate the possible future benefits of nanotechnology for mobile devices. Morph is both stretchable and flexible, but a Nokia spokesman claimed that nanotechnology could also allow future mobile phones to incorporate self-cleaning surfaces and see-through electronics. Although very little has been said about the Morph's technical capabilities, pictures show how, in theory, the handset is able to alter its state between a watch-like mode, a credit-card shape and a traditional mobile phone. No dimensions are given, but the Morph appears to be extremely thin no matter what state it's in.
Green Mobile Phone: Stylish and Sustainable
Nokia has unveiled ReMade, a revolutionary mobile phone made of 100% recycled materials. The idea behind the "remade"� concept was to see if it was possible to create a device made from nothing new. It has been designed using recycled materials that avoid the need for natural resources, reduce landfill, and allow for more energy efficient production. .
