Nokia CEO Says iPhone A "Wakeup Call"



Interesting interview with Nokia CEO Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo discussing how the iPhone changed the mobile marketplace, as well as the transition from being a company focused only on hardware manufacturing to one that also provides services. He observes that Apple has done the mobile industry a great service by illuminating the possibilities of communication and information retrieval via mobile device, thereby dramatically increasing users' proclivity to engage in the mobile experience and super-charging adoption.

For Q4, Nokia grabbed approximately 41% of the worldwide market, compared to RIM at 19.5, followed by Apple at 10.7 (source).
