The New Nokia

By now, many of us have already heard or read about Nokia selling its Devices & Services division to Microsoft. The deal will close early 2014.

After that, Nokia will still exist though. Nokia will continue with its 3 remaining business divisions:

1. NSN or Nokia Solutions and Networks (3g, 4g LTE, 5g ,or mobile networks, mobile broadband
and solution services for mobile operators around the world). http://nsn.com/

2. Here (mapping and locating). We have come to know Nokia´s Here services in Lumia phones, such as
turn by turn navigation, walking navigation, CityLens, LiveSight, Here Transit, Nokia StoryTeller, the upcoming Dragons Adventure game and so on.
Nokia´s Here division will still power these services in phones, tablets and on internet everywhere.
Here´s biggest customers are: car industry (80% of cars with GPS are using Nokia´s Here navigation).
Microsoft, Oracle, Amazon, Yahoo, Facebook etc. are using Nokia´s Here maps and locating services.
Nokia is co-operating with car makers around the world to make cloud connected or smart cars and autonomous cars AKA self-driving cars. http://here.com/

3. Advanced Technologies
Apart from licensing Nokia´s invention patent portfolio, Nokia is doing researching and developing new
materials, sensing, video and audio coding and so on.
For example, Nokia is inventing a new material called Graphene. Read about one example how Graphene
can be used here http://www.graphene-info.com/nokia-develops-worlds-fastest-humidity-sensor-based-graphene-oxide

In other words, Nokia´s history has been around 150 years, Nokia is still around us, Nokia is still connecting people. Nokia sustainability - Connecting people for a better world (a nice video!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PaGO4bMZQfk

Lumia 1020 is a good smartphone and a good digital camera at the same time.
It is light and thin enough to be your daily driver, and the build quality is amazing.
Beside yellow, you can have other color options too. I don´t mean the other cameras are
bad, but look how bulky and unconvinient they are, and they can´t be used as a smartphone either!
