Eric, some speculative fun with numbers.

Assumptions:
* Jorma in Q4 dialogue said he expected Q1 market share to be flat (34%) or up slightly; network sales to experience seasonal decline
*Nokia shares now at 4092 million (4292 in Q4)
* Analysts expectations for Nokia - 70 million units; 8,340 Million Euros revenue; 824 million Euros profit; ASP of 98 Euros

1. Assuming analyst numbers:
*70 m units X 98 Euros = 6860 Euros + 1480 Euros for networks (a 24% decline)
= 8,340 total rev.
* With .134 opg. margin = 1116 Euros opg. profit
* Same tax rate as Q4 = .738, so after tax profit = 824 million Euros; 4092 million shares = 0.20 Euros EPS

2. A more positive outlook:
*Assuming 72 million units (up 33.8% from 05Q1) X 103 ASP for Nokia, and networks seasonal drop of 18%, gives 9016 million Euros revenue
* With an improved opg. margin of 0.14 (Erics wish), yields 1262 million Euros opg. profit X .738 tax rate = 931 million Euros profit
* With 4092 million shares = 0.23 Euros EPS - up 21% from 05Q1 and plus .03 Euros vs analysts

3. Assume Bank of America 74 million units and 215 industry units, gives a Nokia market share of 34.4%
* Overall numbers work out to 9222 million Euros revenue, 953 million Euros profit and 0.2365 Euros EPS - up 24.5% from 05Q1

Can we expect to see numbers like options 2 or 3?
