"GSM is now in decline, but not as much as CDMA, which is coming down big time ... we expect it to come down by more than 20 percent," Nokia Siemens Networks Chief Executive Simon Beresford-Wylie said at Nokia's investor presentations day in New York.

Earlier Nokia lowered its forecast for the overall telecoms equipment market in 2009, saying it would fall in euro terms by 5 percent or more. (Reporting by Tarmo Virki; Editing by Greg Mahlich)
