Canadian CEO condemns web rumours.
Following gossip of Nokia moving its HQ from Finland, the phone maker finds itself at the centre of yet another web rumour, which has caused Nokia CEO Stephen Elop to voice his frustrations.
In light of Nokia selecting Microsoft's Windows Phone OS to power future devices, Russian mobile blogger Eldar Murtazin claims Microsoft is going to buy Nokia's smartphone arm.
He claims Elop and Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer were finalising the deal at the CES event in Las Vegas, which would see the Nokia boss leave the company.
In an interview with PCMag, Elop responded to the claims, saying: "As we've described it before, the rumours are baseless, and some people who seem to enjoy generating rumors are running out of fresh material, so it seems to have come up again. I have nothing else to say."
