This is how a Helsingin Sanomat journalist tried to save Nokia - Kuukausiliite - Helsingin Sanomat

Five years ago, in 2008, a journalist wrote a letter to Nokia, on his own behalf, as a regular person (so not as a journalist). In it, he detailed how Nokia phones used to be easy to use by everyone. However, the Nokia E51 he was using now was a complete mess, insanely hard to use. He ended the letter with prescient words: "This will cause problems for Nokia".

I think pretty much everyone was saying that back then. And shouting it in the years after.

But I guess they weren't alone in completely inexplicably shunning an obvious, easy solution to all their ills - and one with as good a guarantee of success as you could ask - namely, Android: it looks like Blackberry are about to die for exactly the same reason.
