Before Steve Jobs launched into the iPad launch announcement last week, he took a few minutes to remind everyone that Apple isnt just great - its massive.
Apple is now the world's largest mobile devices company, Jobs proudly announced, (taking into account, iPhone, iPod and laptops). And while its unlikely anyone is going to add up all the figures and call their lawyer, Nokia has certainly taken issue.
Nokias Mark Squires took to the company blog to put matters straight, saying there are articles floating around on the sphere that get my blood pressure rising to what my doctor is prone to call an unreasonable level for a man of your years/weight/physical condition.
By chance, Squires was already working up some figures when Jobs made the claim, and pointed out that at least from a financial perspective, Nokia is still out in the lead.
Nokias devices and services business from Oct-Dec was shown as 8.18 billion while the claimants turnover for newly defined mobile devices was 7.25 billion, he explains, concluding that, I, like the rest of my colleagues dont use the words Connecting People lightly.
Back to you, Apple.
