Nokia World
This week saw Nokia World take place in foggy London Town, with the company saying it expects to sell 50 million of its new Symbian smartphones. The event started just after the firm's mobile solutions leader resigned and then later in the week, stories began circulating that the chairman would be gone in 2012.
One of the firm's closest rivals HTC was looking to crash Nokia's party as it unveiled some new smartphones, while Motorola acquired Aloqa for some location-based fun.

Best of the rest
Elsewhere, a Google engineer got the sack for breaking privacy policy, while search rival Microsoft launched the IE9 beta.
In the ever-scary world of security, research showed over a million websites were compromised by malware in the second quarter of this year and a new Adobe Flash vulnerability was found, with reports it had been exploited in the wild.
