A Nokia phone has crashed

I recently bought a mobile phone from a company called Nokia. This company has a good reputation for making mobile phones, and has been doing some great work getting Linux onto some of their phones as well. So it is with some small sadness, but also with firmness of resolve in doing what is right, that I must now report the following:

That the phone that I purchased crashed.

The crash was apparently due to a software fault, and occurred while receiving an SMS.

What must happen now is by the laws of natural justice inevitable. In their hubris they allowed their standards to slip so far as to ship a product with a software defect, and now they must pay the price. It is time for Nokia to get out of the mobile phone business.
