My hope is that Nokia will be doing a better job with the acquisition than how they kept up with smartphones.
When I look at the corporate history of Nokia and see that they used to be in industries completely unrelated to electronics, let alone mobile phones, I have this tiny inkling of hope that they still know how to make big pivots. That's probably simplifying their corporate history too much, but the point is that Nokia wasn't even always a phone company. Things can change.

They also made ammunition for Finnish assault rifles: https://imgur.com/8wUNGcB https://imgur.com/8wUNGcB There was recently an article which revealed some of Nokia's plans to keep on developing 5G networks. Seemingly the idea is to integrate this technology to many of its new IoT devices: http://www.image.fi/image-lehti/uusi-nokia-on-uusi-nokia http://www.image.fi/image-lehti/uusi-nokia-on-uusi-nokia (in Finnish)
