Mark Louison, president of Nokia’s North American business recently said that the EU and APAC dominating company plans to throw even more crumbs to the colonies in 2008 and 2009 than it has in previous years. How many devices actually do come out are dependent on the facist like American operators, but Mark was quoted as saying: “It’s not unreasonable you’d see between 6 to 12 new operator-specific devices this year. It’ll probably be more than this.” Looks like the USA is finally on Nokia’s radar and this money shot quote says it all: “You’ll see some of that in the first half of 2008, with the velocity to increase that in the second half and going full steam ahead in 2009.”
I wish you and your team the best Mark.
