News: THQ Restructuring European Wireless Sector

Exclusive: THQ have contacted N-Europe to confirm a restructuring of their European wireless subsidiary.
A few wires were crossed between N-Europe and a source today. We'd heard word that THQ were in danger of collapsing, and that their Woking division had closed down earlier today.
THQ's European head of PR, Sam Forrest, got back to N-Europe with an official statement to clear up this messy situation.
Today, we advised our staff of a restructuring of our wireless subsidiary in Europe. That's all that has happened. The remainder of the Woking based THQ operation were unaffected by this restructure in the wireless subsidiary.
Our source also got back to us with information that THQ Wireless would be closing down, with only the iPhone sectors left intact. Unfortunately, Mr. Forrest couldn't comment on this, but we're sure more information will officially emerge over the coming days.
We would like to offer our apologies to THQ for earlier inaccuracies, and our thanks to Sam Forrest for providing an official response.
