Most of you have probably read this headline and are wondering “What in the world is this guy talking about”, however, the little electronic devices that the rest of earth calls mobile phones, are referred to only as multimedia computers by all Nokia employees.
“We are forbidden to call them phones,” said the vice president of multimedia strategy and business development. Instead, they’re “multimedia computers.”
Seeing how Nokia sells more “ugh umm” multimedia computers, than any one else, they have probably have a clue as to what they are doing and how forbidding their employees to refer to their units as mobile phones will help them even sell more of them, however, I must admit that it seems kind of silly to me.
