The headquarter of Nokia is in Finland and the big profits and taxes stay there! But the factories are in China, Brasilia and so on. The owners are Americans in most cases! Did u know that the mean factoryprice for a nokiaphone is 4.5 Euros!

They have 9 factories in 3 regions: Europe (including Finland), Americas and Asia. Recently they decided to close one in the US and build a new one in India.
From Nokias to an SE to whatever.  |

Sorry, but there is a town called Nokia and the phones are not produced there, but in the nearby town of Tampere. Second, at one time, Nokia was the largest single rubber boot seller to the Russian Army but then peace broke out and the govt had to think fast. So, they decided to invest in telecom. Helsinki is the home of the Nokia Headquarters. Also, Nokia was at one time about 15 years or so ago was about to go bust and guess which company from Sweden almost bought them? Look at the second word on your s700. The original CEO of Nokia also shot himself in the head trying to keep the company afloat.
By the way, I am not Finnish. I simply can read. |

Right. Ericsson alost bought out Nokia. However, it would be a bit rude to purchase a company where the CEO had just put a hole in his head.
Nokia makes Satellite boxes as well. They also make network equipment, wifi, etc... A good place to start would be: www.nokia.com.
Their network equipment sucks though. Ericsson (without the Sony) makes better networking (GSM, etc..) equipment. |
