Rumours surrounding OPK's future have been swirling for some time, reaching fever pitch on Tuesday when the Wall Street Journal reported that
Nokia is searching for a new top dog and has already lined up a couple of potential candidates, one of whom turned down the role.
Naturally Nokia declined to comment, but Gartner vice president Nick Jones told us he felt Kallasvuo has lost the confidence of investors, suggesting that a change of leadership would be a positive move for the vendor.

"If true this is a good move.
My feeling is that OPK has lost the confidence of investors and a change would be the best thing for Nokia," Gartner analyst Nick Jones said in a note. However, like Versace, Jones said there would be challenges in finding a replacement. "The problem
Nokia faces is finding a European Steve Jobs to replace OPK. The new CEO needs the experience to run a company the size of
Nokia, the charisma to pacify investors, the knowledge to recognize bad products and strategies, and the courage to kill them," he added.
