Word has it that AT&T will be pulling off the Nokia 6650 from its store shelves as it experienced certain “issues” such as resets and poor battery life. It seems as though only folks living in the southern part of Florida were “suffering” from such problems, but AT&T had to make a hard and fast decision because the 3rd carrier capability is expected to roll out across the network nationwide, leaving AT&T with the only choice to stop selling the 6650 nationwide. All affected equipment will have to be returned to the Dallas/Fort. Worth distribution center by the end of August.

Nokia: Nokia is a Finnish communications company that was the largest phone vendor (per unit) between 1988 to 2012. The company's history go back to 1871 but the Nokia that we know today (the Nokia corporation) was founded in 1967 by the merger of three Finnish companies. It is then that Nokia worked on networking equipment and was ultimately involved in the launch of the first cellular network in 1981 (Mobira Oy). Nokia because a key developer of GSM, the standard that we all know today. Although Nokia still produces a range of phones that includes entry-level handsets and Symbian smartphones, the company is counting on the Windows Phone OS to regain the share that it once had. The current flagship Windows Phone device from Nokia is the Lumia 920.
