The one good thing I've heard about Nokia in the US is the T-Mobile hot spot at home. That seems like a good deal, and a step in the right direction. I plan to replace my home phone with a Nokia 6086. http://www.theonlyphoneyouneed.com/ http://www.t-mobile.com/promotions/TwoDeviceHotSpot.aspx http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/phone.php?p=1138 http://cache.theonlyphoneyouneed.com/hotspotathome_specs.pdf Good rant, and you’ve lead me to lots of other good rants on the subject.

It's grown to more like 40% - WITHOUT the US, where Nokia just dropped to fourth. With a huge global share, one forgets how to compete as a back-bench player in a local market. I can't believe that Americans are SO different from the rest of the world. I do not know of ANY market other than the US where Nokia is doing so poorly (and so consistently). Boggles the mind. “Nokia has the growing reputation of not listening to the market, but who can argue with their 35% global market share?”
