INNOVATE AND DOMINATE
When you hear the phrase “tech-market domination”, you probably think of Microsoft. But in the world of mobile phones, the name is Nokia: depending on whose numbers you believe, the Finnish giant sells up to a whopping 40% of the world’s consumer cell phones, almost 180 million last year. Yet even mighty Nokia risks developing an achilles’ heel – namely, the soonto- be-hot corporate market. Fortune 500 companies are desperate for phones that double as computers so travelling execs can tap into corporate data from afar. “It’s an important growth market, and Nokia is worried that the PC guys like Microsoft are coming into that space as computers and phones converge,” says London-based International Data Corp. analyst Tim Mui. IDC forecasts that in Europe alone, business users will buy 60 million phones this year.

How has new technology changed your life?
The impact of new technology, especially in the developed world, is apparent all around us in the way we communicate, run business and understand the world.
But the new century has seen questions arise about how rapid and how extensive the information revolution will be.
Will the internet turn out to be a radical force for uniting and democratising the world, as some have prophesied – or will it cause deeper divisions between the haves and the have-nots?
Delegates to a United Nations summit on information technology in December failed to approve practical measures to deliver the internet and other technologies to the world’s poorest regions.
Despite agreement on lofty principles, negotiators could not agree on key questions such as whether a UN agency should be created to govern the internet and whether to create a separate fund for projects to close the technology gap between rich and poor nations.
