Anssi Vanjoki resigns from Nokia

Even if that's the case, it's still not good, as the N95 didn't see anything even close to what it had potential for. It's basically the Wii except not successful.
 
I'm glad he's gone! :buddies:


Forget the stuff he did with Nokia in the past, for the past year he has been USELESS!


Remember earlier this year when he was talking about Symbian^3 and admitted that the N97 was a failure, but then he throws in the lame excuse the it was only a failure only because Apple was so great.


Then he started the whole "We're going to fight back BS!" and "we're gonna get back on track!" followed be the famous "and it starts now!!!" :doh:


Later on that year Ricky Cadden shuts down Symbian Guru, and Anssi actually uses this as a rallying cry that "We can't let people like Ricky down anymore and we are going to win him back!!!" Even funnier he adopts Ricky an unofficial mascott and keeps telling everyone to WAIT FOR THE N8 (BTW we're still waiting... plus waiting on phone updates)


Anywhoo... iP4 comes out with a huge birth defect, yet Nokia doesn't have any device for disgrunted Apple owners to move on too.



Now Anssi gets passed on a promotion, and conveniently decides it's time to leave. (Basically he's taking his red ball and leaving in a few months) All the promises and rallying cries went went down the drain.



Honestly why would anyone want to hire him?


All he does is make excuses and false hope, and whoever hires him is an idiot... :lol:
 
Man if I didn't know better I'd say you spoke just like a true Machead about Jobs!! Which is to say don't pinch your cheeks by sucking too hard. ;) Sorry had to push that one - being cheeky, you where WIDE open for it.

Funny enough a new hire on Nokia said this - makes you wonder whom pricessly he is referring to?!



Hmm. The part of the quote I've bolded above is specifically what I've been saying would hurt Nokia years ago when I had their back with the E71 as my primary and ONLY device in hand!
 
Race-to-the-bottom problem (or opportunity). Look at what Apple did by maintaining control over HW and OS. Apple kept higher margins on their iPhones.

Android is a race to the bottom for phone manufacturers just like Windows was for PC manufacturers. Lenovo, HP, Dell, and friends are making razor thin margins on new PCs. How many PC customers these days shop by brand name? Windows is the brand. The other brand stickers on PCs are secondary.
 
First take my post with a grain of salt. You GOTTA be kidding me that Vanjoki exudes passion from his core. This is regarding Nokia, Symbian, or mobile market??

Did anyone see this "passion" when announcing the Nokia 5200 - their first touchscreen only Symbian S60 device at the Comes with Music presentation back in late 2008?! His female counterpart displayed more enthusiasm, YOU displayed MORE Passion in ALL your posts HERE and on your blog or even in your video posts.

Ricky … why are YOU NOT working for Nokia directly in some form of:
Hardware design,
Hardware engineering parts acquiring,
Software GUI layout?!

I'd vote for YOU to take Vanjoki's place ANYDAY in the next 10yrs or the past 5!!

EDIT: I intended towards Tero Ojanper? - I'd pick you over this fool, Ansii should've stayed.

What do you too have in the works?!!
 
WHOOPS!

I've mistaken Anssi Vanjoki for another Nokia rep. Ansii doesn't wear glasses!!
Please ignore my posts regarding Anssi and their intended for the dude with glasses: Tero Ojanper
 
Did you watch his presentation at Nokia World at all?
He's just as good of a showman as Jobs. Here's the difference: When I watch Jobs, I want to punch him. When I watch Vanjoki, I'm scared he'll punch me.
 
Actually You're correct.

I retract my statements for Ansii ... my comments where intended for Tero Ojanper? (dude with glasses - THIS fool is boring as hell and overpaid high exec that should've been force to hand in his papers).

I actually like Ansii and felt that without him, the past 3-4yrs of Nokia efforts & the glue to hold Nokia, their investements/investing, together was due to him more than Olli-Pekka.

Like how the communicator was brought back: E7; but the C7 appeals to me more as a hardware design, not the social integration as I'm a social ludite.
