Bloomberg came out with a chart today that will no doubt be used as ammunition by Apple fanbois in internet forums the world over. It shows Apple’s market cap, today, at being roughly $247 billion. That’s the same market cap Nokia had back in the year 2000, which let me remind you, was a full decade ago. Talk about feeling old.

    2007: the N95 year, was the last "good" year of Nokia… then… just nothing… waiting for Symbian 4, the phoenix bird is just sleeping :)

    Symbian ruined Nokia the Most…
    Though undoubtedly ruled, but was just too common for every other Nokia Phone…!!!
