Finland's Nokia Corp., the world's largest maker of mobile phones, reported first-quarter net income fell 7% to 979 million euros or 0.25 euros a share from 1.05 billion euros or 0.25 euros a share.

New stuff
The star of the show, alas, will never hit U.S. shelves. It's the Nokia 7710, a new Symbian smartphone (that actually looks more like a PDA than a phone) with a 640-by-320 touch screen, megapixel camera, excellent Web browser, FM radio, and 90MB of free memory. The slab-shaped 7710 isn't the most entertaining phone to hold to your head—lucky Europeans will probably use it with Bluetooth headsets—but it's a good-looking, innovative smartphone that shows off some of Symbian's best wares.

Review: Nokia's Sexy New Phone
One thing you have to hand to Nokia: The company always manages to push the design envelope. Its phone designs have gone from odd (with the 3650) to sexy with the new 6620 mobile phone. This phone feels and looks good, and carries some PDA-like features and even AT&T's high-speed EDGE network. Is there anything that holds it back? Yes, and y ou'll want to read the full review to get all the details.

Saturday Apr 19, 2003 Security camera sends message to phones
A wall-mounted surveillance camera that can send images directly to a cellphone will be available in the United States this summer, according to maker Nokia
The sub-$500 (U.S.) device is among the first to use so-called machine-to-machine (M2M) technology, which lets machines use cellular telephone networks to communicate with computer systems or other machines.
...By adding a SIM card, which is easily removable from cellphones, the camera literally has a phone number. With a few programming tweaks, any cellphone can send it a blank text message, and the camera replies with a photo of something snapped just moments earlier, said Nokia spokesman Keith Nowak. http://www.globetechnology.com/servlet/story/RTGAM.20030417.gtcamapr17/GTStory

Friday Jun 14, 2002 ec From worse to bad
Nokia's shares climbed even though the company admitted that handset sales would grow at best by 4% in the current quarter over a year ago, and that network-equipment demand could suffer a fall of up to 25%. Investors, perhaps expecting worse, were encouraged by news that the world's leading mobile-phone maker had not cut its profit forecast.

Tuesday Jun 11, 2002 Nokia (NOK - $12.00) Recommendation: Buy Target: $26.00
This morning, Nokia provided revised mid second quarter guidance for earnings of €0.18 - €0.20 ($0.16-$0.18), and revenue guidance of €6.9-7.2 billion. This represents a 2-6% year-over-year decline, compared to previous guidance of 2-7% year-over-year growth. Using NOK guidance, it appears that Average Selling Prices declined by about 5% sequentially, which is a more severe reduction than anticipated. This could be a sign that NOK is aggressively using price to maintain market share given its product line maturity. Management expects the handset market to grow 5% sequentially, in line with expectations. The company projects Nokia Networks sales to fall 20-25% year-over-year compared to 5-10% previous reduction. Management cites a cautious capital spending environment for the revenue shortfall. Slowing 2G infrastructure sales have failed to be offset by growth in sales of 3G systems. We recommend switching out of NOK and into Motorola (BUY Target: $20). On a price to sales basis Motorola is trading at 1.15 times the 2003 sales estimate as compared to Nokia's 1.74 times. Motorola's restructuring plan is well underway and the company seems to be gaining market share from Nokia.

3390 is a give away Free LPS-3 Nokia Loopset (LPS-3) Now $69.95
Users must wear a telecoil (or T-coil) equipped hearing aid for the Loopset to work. Nokia 3390

T-coils are also used in conjunction with regular landline phones as well as with special systems found in many auditoriums and theaters.

A vibrating battery can be useful for some users. Depending on the severity of hearing loss, the phone's ringer may not be audible, even at the loudest setting. A vibrating battery can help alert hearing impaired users of an incoming call.

The phone's auto-answer mode can be used in conjunction with the Loopset. Since the user must manually switch his or her hearing aid to T-coil mode before beginning a conversation, the auto-answer mode can minimize the number of steps that must be undertaken first.

The Loopset has a built-in microphone for hands-free operation. The Loopset also reduces background noise. The LPS-1 works with Nokia 5100, 6100, and 7100 series phones. The LPS-3 works with the 8800 series phones and works also with 3390.

The Loopset was developed by Mikko Haho, a Nokia Design Engineer.
