Hi guys,

While brousing through some news articles I came across this rather interesting article on Cisco a US-based company's interest in buying the world’s top mobile handset maker Nokia.

Check out the link below.

Wow:

The paper said Cisco’s mainstay networking market was fast changing with the convergence of fixed-line and wireless networks, and Cisco needed a merger to acquire the technology to create intelligent wireless applications, which Finnish-based Nokia could provide. Cisco declined to comment.

this is getting interesting. so, nokia is really that... inclined... :)
