Well, who could've imagined that an almost dead 'paper-manufacturer' in
the
tinny Finish vilage of Nokia would start making mobile phones and grow
within
several years to one of the most prophitable companies in the world?
As a side note, 60% of the Finish population has a mobile phone. Remark
to this

Cheers,
