> So they've fallen to 4th position

This seems a little nonsensical. Apple has never been able to keep up with production in the 1st world.

I think the journalist who wrote the original article is confused. Probably doesn't really know the relationship between smart and dumb phones. Certainly Nokia is about as nimble as the Titanic.
