- makeramen 16y agoi laughed. the fact that this exists is terrible news for nokia.
- shadowpwner 16y agoSurely not terrible news, it's only satire.
- makeramen 16y agobut it means that people are quite divided about what the company should do with its future, which is not a position any company wants to be in.
- joelandren 16y agoMeeGo about 20 thousand miles before needing to be rotated.

- benwerd 16y agoSo, um, Nokia Plan F is pretty nsfw. Just a quick warning.
- DarkShikari 16y agoSounds like they're changing it in realtime -- when I clicked on it, it was completely SFW (right now, it 404s for me, so I can't confirm anything). Your warning should apply to all of these, as they can be changed at any time.
- benwerd 16y agoWell, that's surely true of the entire web.

- PakG1 16y agoThis is amazingly hilarious, given the company's real roots. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia "In 1898, Eduard Polón founded Finnish Rubber Works, manufacturer of galoshes and other rubber products, which later became Nokia's rubber business.[28] At the beginning of the 20th century, Finnish Rubber Works established its factories near the town of Nokia and began using Nokia as its product brand.[31] In 1912, Arvid Wickström founded Finnish Cable Works, producer of telephone, telegraph and electrical cables and the foundation of Nokia's cable and electronics businesses.[28] At the end of the 1910s, shortly after World War I, the Nokia Company was nearing bankruptcy.[32] To ensure the continuation of electricity supply from Nokia's generators, Finnish Rubber Works acquired the business of the insolvent company.[32] In 1922, Finnish Rubber Works acquired Finnish Cable Works.[33] In 1937, Verner Weckman, a sport wrestler and Finland's first Olympic Gold medalist, became President of Finnish Cable Works, after 16 years as its Technical Director.[34] After World War II, Finnish Cable Works supplied cables to the Soviet Union as part of Finland's war reparations. This gave the company a good foothold for later trade.[34] The three companies, which had been jointly owned since 1922, were merged to form a new industrial conglomerate, Nokia Corporation in 1967 and paved the way for Nokia's future as a global corporation.[35] The new company was involved in many industries, producing at one time or another paper products, car and bicycle tires, footwear (including rubber boots), communications cables, televisions and other consumer electronics, personal computers, electricity generation machinery, robotics, capacitors, military communications and equipment (such as the SANLA M/90 device and the M61 gas mask for the Finnish Army), plastics, aluminium and chemicals.[27] Each business unit had its own director who reported to the first Nokia Corporation President, Björn Westerlund. As the president of the Finnish Cable Works, he had been responsible for setting up the company’s first electronics department in 1960, sowing the seeds of Nokia’s future in telecommunications.[36]"
- michael_dorfman 16y agoI guess my age is catching up with me. I was a satisfied customer of Nokia, having bought many Hakkapeliittas to get me through the Vermont winters, long before telephones were something you could fit in your pocket. It never really occurred to me that the mobile phone side of the business had completely overshadowed the tires.
- mda 16y agoIt seems serving to a rubber baron makes some sense for Nokia now.
- timclark 16y agoOne of my friends used to work for Nokia in Espoo and he has always stated that quite a lot of the managers he had worked with would have been quite happy to still be working for a paper company.

- tarvaina 16y agoActually, Nokian Tyres (that Nokia split out in 1988) had very strong results in the last quarter: http://www.nokiantyres.com/release?id=20127060 http://www.nokiantyres.com/release?id=20127060 "Going into 2011 our order book is all-time high and it provides us with a good opportunity to increase sales, again operating more selectively. We will also continue to launch new product lines, increase prices and improve mix to offset higher raw material costs. Low inventories in the distribution channel and our growing production capacity offer a good starting point for further profitable growth in 2011."
