not making a judgement, merely pointing out that nokia has had to sacrifice some of their profitability to maintain the lead (at least in aus).

It could be expected that newcomers to the market are willing to sacrifice profits to get their product "out there" and help to rapidly establish a name for themselves, but old hands like Nokia usually only do so when they think they'll be in trouble if they don't. it doesn't help investor confidence either (Ballmer and Co might like it though)
