Nokia and Sanyo announced today that they will not be forming the new
CDMA device company preliminarily announced in February.
The Finnish company said on it would pull out of CDMA phone
manufacturing, which it sees as a shrinking market in the longer
term. Recent developments may indicate that the CDMA emerging markets
business is looking more challenging.

Nokia will cut a few hundred jobs as it shuts down its CDMA handset
development.
The company has been developing CDMA (Code-Division Multiple Access)
products at a facility in San Diego but is now turning to ODMs
(original device manufacturers) for all its CDMA phones. It expects
to eliminate about 600 jobs in the process, cutting a work force of
about 1,150 to roughly 550, said spokesman Keith Nowak. In the
future, the San Diego unit will work with the ODMs and also help to
develop Nokia GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) and UMTS
(Universal Mobile Telecommunications System) products.
Apology accepted.
