If the person who wrote this entry is not a native English speaker, then please read no further. It is not my point to criticize anyone who has English as a second language.

To accept the writing from someone for whom English is a primary language, however, raises the question of credibility of the information and the informer.

This entry contains so many poorly structured sentences that lead to ambiguity of meaning, so many "small" mistakes, such a lack of proper capitalization, missing or redundant punctuation, word misuse and run-on sentences that lose connection with their initial point, that the reader wonders if the writer truly understands the subject or is simply parroting set phrases.

My impression is that the writer is not adequately educated in English and therefore not qualified to represent such a prestigious client as Nokia, especially in the introduction of new and exciting technology, where clarity and quality of language is essential to attracting customers.

Writing conveys more than information about a product; it also characterizes the writer. How he writes reflects well or poorly on himself and by association, his client.
