Nokia doesnt seem to care about the mobiles once they are sold because they already have the money from you.

Intel has a superb system for its motherboards that Nokia can learn from. If the motherboard BIOS gets screwed up all you have to do is download a special software and burn this software on a cd. Then you set the jumpers and start the computer the BIOS is automatically updated and the motherboard is recovered for higher level manipulation.

Nokia phones are dead as a doornail once you foul up the update and their cables are not too good either.

I believe a good engineer can reserruct the phone by removing the battery and connecting a special connector and reloading the software.
