                            Recently one frined of mine, who was pleased with 5310, went for a "cheap" iphone 3GS, didn't like it and sold it (2nd hand!) for around US$372! He is shopping for a new phone again...and primary target is Android.

                            Symbian? He said "no thanks!"

                                  By releasing dozens of similar models, the almighty brand is killing its own image! As from a distance, can one really tell if someone is using 5800 or 5230 or whatever? With the E7, how would non-experts tell if one is using N8 or E7 (without opening the keyboard)?

                                  iphone is simple, most people know such is an iphone.

                                    Why every new phone that comes out is compared to iPhone??? Why everybody wants iPhone??? But because is so expensive they can not afford it and they are looking for good reason not to like iPhone??? And what's the good reason not to like iPhone? Antenna? Well when you are ready to come to the world of future you will be welcomed in our Apple Family. Next year when iPhone 5 comes out it will be with 2 dual core CPU's inside the phone. Yea you heard me right, that is 2 dual core processors, today every phone has only single. try to beat that.

                                        We are not saying that Apple didn't introduce the App store, it is a big thing to some, but not that great to others like myself, not because it's Apple, but because I don't download games and apps. I use my phone for texting, calling, emails, web browsing and sometimes taking pics (rarely) and this is why I don't see Apple and Android that great of an achievement because they rely too much on their App store and Market place. in countries where you don't have 3G and data packs they will be a total fail.
