Pierre: Yes. For the Nokia CEO to put this garbage out as a "keynote speaker" (the keyhole is clogged, no?) is pitiful.

But then, he doesn't have a clue re: technolgy - only pretty covers for phones. Sad.

And he has zero access (a license) to the future of data, CDMA/1xEV/WCDMA.

What is particularly amazing is that people in the US are misled by such stuff. GPRS will not cut it. Period.

Europe is stuck with it, but here, no.

Here is the nonsense:

"Our timetable has been all along that we plan to roll out GPRS
handsets in the third quarter of this year with significant volumes in
the tens of millions of them available in the fourth quarter. GPRS will
be significant by the fourth quarter of this year and will lead us to 3G
late in 2002, so I think the timetable is set," Ollila said.

"Galvin agreed, noting that Motorola is already shipping" ... but then MOT is the shoot itself in the foot company. They deserve each other.

Best.
