Browsing through some finance blogs, I found this at Bloomberg – a chart which depicts the slow demise of Nokia as the reigning phone giant it used to be. The chart was a comparison between Nokia, Apple and RIM with Apple leading the herd and growing 8X larger than the former giant Nokia.

Things don’t look so good for Nokia, the former mobile phone giant as Bloomberg released this trend chart. The chart focuses on 3 major handset makers – Apple, Nokia and RIM – and reviews their performance from year 2000 till present. Nokia which previously was 14 times the size of Apple, has now shrunk to one eight of the size of Apple. Or is it that Apple has grown? Well it works both ways but the truth remains that Nokia has lost its touch with its consumers. Probably spending too much time trying to be a please-all?
Since its launch on the 4th of June, the HTC EVO 4G has been plagued by various issues. Talk about bad luck (or just bad engineering), the HTC EVO 4G first suffered supply shortage in the US due to the overwhelming demand. Next was a screen separation issue which consumers feared would affect its usability and reliability. Now people are talking about the screen sensitivity to grounding?! HTC, get your act together!! Lets hope they solve all this before the HTC EVO 4G starts shipping in Malaysia. Read more on the issues after the link.
