Nokia today confirmed the close of its last Finnish handset factory in Salo, Finland. No longer can the once-king of mobile proudly claim the words "Made in Finland." The factory's final phone was assembled on Wednesday. This isn't unexpected — Nokia informed us in June that it had plans to cut 3,700 jobs in Finland as a cost-cutting measure. And the firm went even farther, stating the overall goal is cut 10,000 jobs globally. In Salo, 780 people will lose their job this year, but Nokia has plans to keep a research facility there.
