Nokia Battery Recall

A la Dell battery recall a year or so ago, due to batteries overheating while charging. 46 Million Matsushita-maufactured units to be replaced. See if you are affected. Poor Nokia=/

Nokia profits strong this quarter

Spurred by my need for a new Nokia after my previous one didn't make it through the wash, Nokia reported a 19% increase in profits over the same quarter in 2005. If progressively more people wash their phones each year, Finland will see a multi-billion Euro increase in the size of their economy. Bulgaria is also already helping out Finnish elevator giant Kone by using the devices in hit killings of mob bosses. The Finnish economy is quite strong indeed!
