Nokia is facing a crisis as its sees its grip loosen on the world's handset market.

 

The world's biggest mobile-phone maker saw its global market share drop to 29% in the first quarter of 2004 from 35% a year ago and the lowest in at least three years according to a report issued out by research firm Strategy Analytics.

 

Global sales in the mobile market hit the roof in the first quarter of 2004, with sales up 40% from last year to 153 million units. But Motorola, Samsung, Siemens, LG and SonyEricsson all gained on Nokia, according to the report.

S. Korea again delays troops dispatch to Iraq

(AP)

 

30 April 2004

 

 

 

SEOUL - South Korea?s decision on where to send 3,600 troops in Iraq has been delayed, despite the US ally?s repeated commitments to an early troops deployment.

 

 

The country?s National Security Council had said it would make the decision when it met on Thursday. But in a statement issued Thursday evening, the council said it needed more time for a ?prudent decision.?

 

South Korea has been considering two towns in the northern Kurdish region - Sulaimaniyah and Irbil - for the location of 3,600 troops.

All over the UK-NewsMedia... word is that the pictures of the Iraqi prisioners of war photos' r receiving BLANKET COVERAGE in the Arab press while it is receiving mediocre time in the American Media.

 

Al-Jazeera and Al-Arabiya viewed by 100million Muslims world wide including 1.5million in the US titles the pictures as " Immoral and disgraceful "

 

I dont think the average american has any idea of the insult of having woman abusing an naked Muslim man.

 

This is worse than the problems of Al-Sadr, Fullujah, Nasarya & Najaf combined.
