AMEDIACIR.CLIP: iPhone Goes Wide, Nokia Goes Long

Have you ever seen a business man with a Blackberry and a cell phone. I sure have, in fact, I know many of them.

Why is this?

Blackberry went after, and conquered a very specific market, while the iPhone is attempting to go after everyone.
I love my iPhone for most things. The one thing I do not love is the email. Perhaps it is me (please give me feedback if you have some insite) but the email is SO slow on my iPhone.

I digress.

Nokia has announced a strategy to specifically go after the business person. This seems to be part of a larger strategy to garner more market share in the mobile services space. This play will support the current stronghold they currently have on the hardware space and position them for the future, where mobile services will play an increasing role.
