On: Singapore-based Newkia wants to bring Nokia back

[calinet6]

Sounds great, but that name is a lawsuit waiting to happen. It'll never fly.

[Metrop0218 → calinet6]

Yup. Microsoft would sue in about a week.

[devx → Metrop0218]

Microsoft? Microsoft doesn't own the Nokia brand. If anything it will be Nokia suing them.

[cs648 → devx]

Microsoft just bought Nokia...

[icebraining → cs648]

No, they bought their mobile & services businesses unit, and licensed some patents. Nokia still exists.

From Microsoft's press release: "Nokia will continue to own and manage the Nokia brand."
