Apple has 12 issued patents in Finland.

Patents give one right to exlcude others from market. Best way to do it to enforce patents in home country of a company.

When looking on Apple's toolset to force Nokia in total halt here are all the EP patents assigned to Apple and validated in Finland. Study TBD if those are related to Mobile or not.

i.e. total of 12 patents in pocket. Not a good position in negotiation against Nokia with total of 8796 issued patents in US.
