It’s no secret that Apple has been getting a lot of heat because of the latest firmware update bricking the iPhone. Apparently Nokia has taken this perfect opportunity to get in a wonderful jab at the newcomer to the mobile phone world.

Nokia Ad

Granted, they didn’t call out Apple by name, but you know that they were thinking of the iPhone when they came up with this advertising scheme. Nokia seems to think that phones are better when they’re unlocked.

One does have to take into consideration that many Nokia phones are actually locked to a carrier when they’re bought. However, it is completely possible to call your carrier and have it unlocked. Also, phones like the N95 run on an OS that allows you to create and install your own software. Score one for Nokia.
