How can you call "iPhone" a nimble upstart and compare it to Nokia, the multinational corporation. Wouldn't "Apple" be more of an apples to apples comparison?

- JVIDEL 9y agoYep, in fact I think apple might been bigger than nokia in 2007
- adventured 9y agoNokia was twice as big as Apple. Nokia's sales for fiscal 2006 were close to $50 billion with $5 billion in profit (in 2006 Euro/Dollar terms). For fiscal 2007, their sales jumped to closer to $60 billion (for 2008 as well). Apple's sales for fiscal 2006 were $19.3 billion. Apple didn't pass Nokia in size until the end of 2010; as Nokia began the drop that saw 40% of their sales disappear in just four years.
