Some interesting news from Finland today. Nokia has always been the largest stake holder in London based Symbian Ltd with 48% ownership. Today they bought Siemen’s 8.4% stake of Symbian for $109M and they have already offered to purchase the stake of the remaining shareholders. Everyone except for Samsung has said yes though they do expect Samsung to say yes as well.
