Nokia's Q3 financial results here:
http://www.nokia.com/2004/Q3/index.html
Bottom line: although a 13% increase in units sold (45.4 to 51.4 M), profits before taxes decreased by 10% (Q2 comparison).

It's not frightening. It only an option.
If you cut prices you sell more phones (and maybe the price cut is compensated)
If you don't you sell less phones but make more money outta them.
The issue here is nokia cuts prices, sells more phones, but make less money. And that is frightening... for them!
But as long as you have profit, no worries...

well they still have profits just reduced. what i meant by frightening was the sheer volume of phones. market share percentages dont sound to bad ie nokia 29% se 7%
but when you look at the number of handsets it shows the mountain any company has to catch up
nokia did 156million handsets in 1 quarter and se did 10 million.
not sure what samsung etc did but if you take the market share the next nearest company has 15% so they did only half of nokias volume
even adding motorola and se s figure together wouldnt get you near nokias phone s sales and thats frightening

nokia sold 51 million in Q304 - not 156m.
If SE world share is 7% then Nokia would be about 33%.
After cutting prices Nokia is still making a good 19% profit margin per phone. Contrast this to only 8% for SE.
