Nokia may sell mobile phone manufacturing business… one day
In an intriguing excerpt from an interview that'll be published tomorrow, Nokia Executive Vice-President and General Manager of marketing Anssi Vanjoki appears to suggest that the company wouldn't rule out selling its handset manufacturing business to help the development of its online services. The full interview is due to be published in German business magazine Wirtschaftswoche on Monday. Mr Vanjoki is quotes as saying that Nokia's mobile manufacturing offers a competitive advantage but the company should "never say never" to considering a sale. [Sources: mocoNews.net; Reuters.com]
