From: John Navas on 8 Aug 2010 11:40 While Nokia and Apple are suing each other, Nokia continues to push Apple into a corner of the smartphone world. While Google and Android are the current hot topics, Apple competitors are pressured by Nokia's massive mid-range effort. Especially Samsung and LG seem to be loosing customers to Nokia, and rather than solely fighting back against Nokia, both companies have smartphones in the pipeline that'll target the iPhone market very specifically. Sony Ericsson keeps their cards tight, but is already executing a similar strategy, that'll ultimately also lead to direct iPhone competitors, if you ask us. In addition there's Nokia's own massive effort with Qt atop Symbian and MeeGo. Apple has turned to its lawyers to prevent being pushed into the said corner, but it doesn't look like that's going to be a successful path. Additionally, Microsoft looms in the background, a company Apple can't touch. The "innovate or die" stamp may simply be on Apple's forehead next. We guess that's also why hardware aspects are rapidly becoming important for Apple, with Microsoft closely following suit. Hardware could become the key differentiator between these two companies as far as mobile computing in the future is concerned. A market Nokia and Intel will aim to rule through MeeGo. <http://www.infosyncworld.com/reviews/cell-phones/nokia-n900/11202.html>
