The market is certainly opening up for Samsung to clean up.

TV market is going the way of smartphones. Samsung can do no wrong at the moment.

They utterly dominate in mobile phones. Everyone else is fighting for whats left. The new Samsung Ativ Windows 8 is very nice for example.

I cant see how the former Japanese giants can compete on any level.

That's not an Android phone. Windows 8 phones have no future. The Metro design has been out for over a year and yet Windows phones only have a 2-3% marketshare. Consumers simply don't want them.

Its a slow climb, but its climbing. God forbid we have more choice then IOS and Android software.

Consumers don't like Windows phones, mobile carriers hate them and the biggest Win phone maker Nokia is dead.

How can you not see it has failed?

Im seeing reports that the latest Win Phone is selling out. Thats why. Its slowly increasing marketshare, not lowering.

lol you gotta be kidding? What Win Phone is "selling out"? And you don't question those reports?

The only reason why Win Phone increased from 2% to 3% in the last year is because Nokia adopted the platform and killed off the rest of its business. But Nokia is taking its last breaths.

I see you have used the terms "dead" and "last breaths" when talking about Nokia

I can also see that your posts are becoming more irrational each day that passes... I think you may be questioing yourself and wondering if you should flip your allegiance back again.  It must be tormenting for you. lol

Lets examine your original post which said Nokia is dead. (it will work for last breaths too)

 

Nokia share price last 4 months: up 100%  

Nokia share price since Lumia 920 and 820 hit the stores: up 35%  (in less than 2 weeks)

Nokia market cap: $13.39 bn

Assets to Liabilities: 1.61:1

 

Lets contrast that with your favourite company...

 

Sony share price last 4 months: down 28%

Sony share price since recent earnings release: down 15%

Sony market cap: $10bn

Assets to liabilities: 1.19:1

 

Now, by YOUR definition (not mine) who is dead or taking last breaths again?

 

You should stay away from financial discussions if you cant interpret data in an objective way.

Sales of smartphpones will decline, which will be shown in Nokia next quarterly report. The share will take a huge hit from that and never recover.

Also Nokia as a company is losing grip of its thirdl world market because they can't offer a cheap smartphone with the Win Phone platform.

A couple of more years tops and Nokia is dead/bought out.

Sony is in much MUCH better shape than Nokia.
