> Why would it be sad to say goodbye to Nokia? Companies come and go and all of Nokia's problems today are of their own making.

Well there are a lot of smart developers in Finland with a good design sense and the executive screwup at Nokia was no fault of theirs. It's not clear to me that there will be a big enough tech market to absorb them all. So there would probably be a net contraction of smart people doing cool stuff. To me, that's bad.

Also, more competition is always a good thing for the market.
