^^yea, Dick komiyama called you up and cried over it.
SE is a 7 year old company and over the years it has done enough to earn a reputation in itself. It has been almost 4 years since mainstream touchscreens were announced in the circuit but its not until now that nokia has come up with a touch phone on their own that has not yet been announced.
Nokias market share is owing to their strong base in the niche market with handsets such as the 1100 and blah balh and the reputation if being an old firm. The k800 and the k810 outsold all nokias in the midsegment, but due to SE's lack of penetration in the gulf regions and lacking lower end portfolio it could not get a better share. In fact, Nokia';s share came down to a startling 31% in 2005 when SE launched itself with the k750 and the W800.
Companies may go through lean phases but breaking a joint venture is never in the scene. Most people comment when a company is doing bad, not one praises when its doing good.
As for your Innov8 comment. C905 is not a smartphone and as per i am concerned it packs evrything that a mid end user needs and shall be placed accordingly. Its not a competition to the innov8 ither. The n96 falls in the innov8 bracket.
y wud they price a flagship phone for ~22k when they already have other phones at the price point ?? wake up man...face it...even a n78 ~15k is much better other than the camera...
dont ever undervalue symbain....u wudnt know about the tons of apps,games,etc
Are you an analyst?? When the C905 launches the C902 and all will drop prices by 2-3k and will be available for the mid end user. The C905 has been offcially quoted at 450 euros and its the pre order price.
And stop those fanboyish comments.I am not comparing a smartphone to a normal phone. Yea and that n78 thing is damn noobish.
btw..i have had a 5700 for 6 months if that answers your last comment, and i repeat symbian is not a feature, its an OS for christs sake.
