Well said.First of all, holy crap... Slashdot?! I stopped reading their drivel years ago!
Second, I'm sorry... remind me, why is this man the FORMER CEO again? No really, remind me why, because try as I might, Bing and Google show nothing but his vitriol and hatred (and articles about that vitriol and hatred) of every subsequent CEO since his departure, but I can't find one single article showing how great he was or why he's gone or anything of the sort. Even the Wikipedia article on Nokia doesn't mention him, so in my mind, clearly he's a nobody who's just bitter and angry.
Heck, I've posted on FB and Twitter about my former employers being incompetent too, and nobody bothers to blog about it... and I'm actually RIGHT... so why do we care what this guy says?
Even if he's right, and even if he's God's gift to Nokia, who's going to listen to someone who's done nothing but publicly spout off negativity for the past 3 years?
Tommi Ahonen is not old Nokia CEO. He was Nokia executive way back in the day. I believe he was in Nokia somewhere in the 90's and left before early 2000 when Nokia was rocking at being even largest European company for a while.
Tommi Ahonen is famous Nokia hater that works for some big media houses as a analyst and has his own company these days.
It's unbelievable how he straight out lies. He does absolutely make good points as well, but the lying to me makes hard to take him serious.
How people’s perception of Nokia has been destroyed ? Dominies Communicate
News flash. When a "former" anything bashes the organization to which they used to be associated, their opinion is generally agreed to be invalid.
What you say if you were asked what you thought of an ex-girlfriend's new boyfriend?

No.
So, there you have it, the published Nokia strategy reviewed when we have a clear point in the strategy time-table, the clear point where half of total Nokia smartphone revenues come from Windows Phone. It is clear, this strategy has failed not on one leg, not on two, but on all three legs. It must immediately be terminated and Nokia could pursue any other strategy and be better off. And the CEO is incompetent, he must be fired immediately.
Ahonen is a pathetic, attention-seeking moron.
There, I said it. Sites should stop giving him publicity.
Has this been confirmed? I haven't heard anything about the ATIV S's carriers or pricing.Samsung developed a Hero device and it will be on all three major carriers...
