I find it interesting that the total market for 'converged devices' grew but Nokia's share slipped as did SE's... is the big winner in this category Apple? Wouldn't surprise me.

Also it must be a concern for Nokia than their converged market total of 13.7M is only a small fraction of their overall total of 93.2M units. That means they're mostly selling low end phones with low ASP and low margins. Nokia won't want to lower prices and further affect ASP but if they're stockpiling phones due to network 'de-stocking' then they might have to.

Its fascinating that Nokia share price went up, is this a reflection perhaps of the recessionary trend of investment to flow towards established market leaders? One certainly wouldn't want to invest in SE or Motorola at the moment while Apple's share price depends solely on Steve Jobs state of health.

Ye exactly, the N82, N95-8gb, 5800xm, N79 and N85 are all very well priced for what you get




I think you could probably add the E71 to that list. It did Nokia very well for Q4 and is a fantastic handset for not alot of money (RRP £220 ish)

I guess they cursed themselves when they released N96.
