I saw something recently where a question was asked whether Nokia can/will make in-roads into North America. Are you kidding me? They have 40% Global marketshare, set the trends (for most part) and now own Navteq as well… of course Nokia will make more penetration in North America! The future of mobile lies in presence, mobile ads, on demand music, videos, games etc… who else could dominate that space at this time? North Americans for the most part are content with text messaging, 1 megapixel digital cameras (shoot, my daughter even has a 3MP phone camera!) and push email. Try a phone with 4 or 8GB expandable memory, an amazing video and digital camera experience, hundreds of thousands of available apps, Internet radio and much more … the biggest obstacle is the sales channel. The Carrier shops sell crappy devices, sales crews are totally clueless, and the selection of devices simply isn’t there. Go online and buy an unlocked device, that’s what consumers need to be doing… beware the contract
