For those who don't understand German, the article referenced in the OP talks about the fact Nokia might be looking into changing its business into a service provider rather than hardware maker.

It's a lot of speculation, but nothing no-one with half a brain didn't know. Nokia has been looking into Services-as-a-Product for quite some time now, Ovi being a very good example of that. My opinion is that Nokia will probably keep playing the emergent markets with relatively cheap and very reliable phones (who ever had a 5110 or 3210 dying on them? Those tanks survived being flushed through the toilet!). They will also probably play the high-end market with a few expensive phones (N900, N97), but branching out into services is a completely logical decision.

the turkish F-layout is rarely used these days, but with it you could end up as fgğıod12

... and everybody who tried Ovi so far will know that Nokia can never survive as a service provider. They can't do software (PC suite, anyone? Ovi Player?), they can't do services.

You'd *never* get to be azerty12 on any French forum with more than a dozen users... more like azerty345826 !

That's why I chose fpp... no local layout problems :-)
