Nokia starts talks with Finnish staff over revamp

Nokia, the world's top cellphone maker, said it will start talks with Finnish employees over the company's new strategy, which unions fear could cost more than 5,000 jobs in the Nordic country. Nokia last month announced a strategy overhaul, dumping its own software
platforms and saying it would start to use Microsoft's Windows Phone. Shares in Nokia, the national champion in Finland, have dropped more than 20 percent since. Nokia said topics to be discussed include the planned changes in organisation and work arrangements, but not potential job cuts.
