    Don't know if it was already mentioned on here but all new handsets will be called Microsoft Lumia.
    A Page you like is changing its name.

    "Nokia Ireland" is changing to "Microsoft Lumia Ireland".

    Yes, Would be an interesting twist - I was thinking microsoft to be a bit mad dispensing with the Nokia brand or if not mad, at least underestimating the value of the Nokia brand but this article gives a good contextual piece on the possibility of a return by Nokia to the handset market once the lock out period is done. It's not that unusual - Closer to home, we saw eircell being sold in 1986 by then telecom eireann to become vodafone ireland, only a number of years later for eircom to reenter the mobile arena with emobile and a purchase of meteor. It will be an interesting one to watch.
