- What Happens When You Hammer A Nail Into A Nokia Lumia? (NOK)

- A YouTuber called the Nokia Lumia 900 the “toughest phone in the world.”
Tech Craver wanted to test that.
So they took it into the lab and tried to hammer a nail directly into the screen.
The screen was intact. It didn’t even scratch.
Then they turned the phone around and tried to use it as a hammer, slamming the screen onto the head of the nail.
No effect this time either.

- Poor Scott Thompson.
Network equipment maker F5 just announced that Thompson is off its board, effective immediately, according to a filing with the SEC. No explanation was given.
F5 is a public company and it paid Thompson $271,069 last year between cash and stock (and $260,516 in 2010). Thompson has been a director with F5 since 2008.
That wasn’t Thompson’s only advisory gig. Zuora’s web site still proudly proclaims him as a board member. Zuora is a cloud startup that does billing for other…
