T-Mobile Pulls Nokia Phone Model From UK Shops
Nokia may be the world's largest mobile phone seller, but there have been a number of stories recently about technical problems with their phones. For years, Sprint PCS refused to carry Nokia phones, despite their popularity, because of difficulties getting the phones to work properly on CDMA networks. Now, T-Mobile is pulling the Nokia 7210 (with the color screen) from UK shops due to technical problems in getting it to work on their network. Unfortunately for T-Mobile, they've been heavily promoting the phone and its picture-messaging capabilities.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
