Microsoft to acquire Nokia's handset business for
$7.2 bln.
Microsoft Corp on Tuesday said it will buy Nokia's mobile phone business for
5.44 billion euros ($7.2 billion).
The deal is expected
to close in the first quarter of 2014 and it is subject to approval by Nokia's
shareholders and regulatory approvals. Nokia partnered in 2011 with Microsoft
and uses Microsoft's Windows software to run its mobile phones.
Good news, bad news, whichever
way you see it.
