Nokia and multimedia handsets. Mention one and most people will reflexively think of the other. The Finns are known for their N-series mobile phones that can take amazingly sharp and crisp pictures, shoot high-quality video, and store gobs of media.

It sucks that Mozilla has to work with wireless carriers before it can roll out its FireFox Mobile browser - Stefan would agree. But, that doesn't mean that Mozilla will be held up in releasing their FireFox Mobile browser. The mobile web-browser is set for release by year's end 2008. Unfortunately...
