Thanks for the post, Fun. Glad to see you on our thread.

You did a very nice job of laying out Nokia's strengths. It is a King, and cannot be a Gorilla, under the definitions we use. To be the Gorilla of handsets, everyone else would have to pay them a royalty. Nothing wrong with being a King, a lot of us have made more money on Kings than Gorillas.

I think you meant to say that JDSU is a King, not a Gorilla. If you did, you are right, IMO. They have a tremendous lock at the moment, but eventually will get some pricing pressure, as you point out.
