Think about it...
I did. I've thought about it often, in fact... and in sincere honesty, it wouldn't make any difference to me. Not one iota of difference.

I wouldn't notice any less support, any less products I want to buy, I wouldn't notice any less lack of parts, any less updates for my N800, etc.

Honestly: I'm not happy but I'm very interested to see whether Nokia will notice if they're going out of business, if it turns out that they are.

Long:

- APPL (iPhone 4, iPad enterprise and emerging market demand)
- GLW (Gorilla glass for smartphones, TVs, et al)
- CRUS (iPad)
- MU (picked up on bottom of channel, storage/mem demand)
- PWER (fundamentals, green power)

...enough reasons to be long "some stocks".

To that end, I've already stopped buying Nokia stuff for a long time now. I'm not sure why you made it sound like a terrible thing. Do they not have competitors with better products or something?

The only reason to be happy with it is that Nokia might *finally* start to notice they are on the wrong path and correct it. Start with dumping the CEO

They need to realize its not 2005 anymore, the competition has caught and Nokia needs to lead. Currently their high end products can barely compete (for the majority of consumers)
*currently* Consumers like:
- ease of use, not 5 layers of menus to do one thing
- stable OS and out of the box apps
- touch screen
- slim phone
- great battery life
- decent maps,music,video,facebook apps designed for touch screen
- decent front and back camera.

Name one Nokia phone on the market that meets these requirements

Depends, do you like being forced into contracts and using pseudo-Java OSes? I know you bought an N1, but no one's selling non-user-hostile Android devices these days now that Google gave up.
