        [deleted post]Keep waiting. Noikia will fail first before Apple does. Actually, Nokia is already failing and is now playing catch-up.

I buy download content on PSN using prepaid cards since I do not want to disclose my credit card information to online vendors that stores them.

Most countries that i've been to have convenience stores that sell itune/online music gift cards such as US, Japan, Europe. However it may be possible in your country that there is no way to purchase from itunes gift store or amazon online.

                    I dont think it counts as 3 step since you said there is still some onscreen steps that need to be followed. I dont know about you, but jailbreaking had bricked my friends 3gs and made my other friend's 4g unable to play music.

                    Where can i get such prepaid itunes card? I dont see any so far in my country. 0_o

The developer developed his own app and didn't want to go through the process of getting said app signed by Symbian hence why it wasn't a signed application. Not every developer wanted to pay to have their app signed ya know? So how was the link i gave you not a "legit" source? Legit as in being from symbian foundation or legit from being ovi store? Like I said, that was from 2009, 2 years ago dude. There is a link directly linking to the developer in which he would take donations if you wanted to give him one.

                      The process of jailbreaking an iphone is 3 steps, download said jailbreak onto your pc, run it following onscreen steps, and reboot your iphone. It doesn't take tech savvy users to do this, all you need is basic comprehension of reading.

                      If you don't own a credit card there are prepaid gift cards for itunes. You can load those up anywhere.

If you had download it from a legit source, no signing would have been required. The site you have just gave me is not a legit source btw.

                        Not everyone it a tech geek like you and i. So if the tutorial to jailbreak an iphone seem simple to you, it might not be for others.

                        When i sarcastically ask for your credit card, what i meant was i do not own one therefore i cant buy music from net like you said.

                        Seems to me that your misinformed too, not just me

                            you might want to read up on this tutorial. free-Isms has always been free when I used it. Only unsigned and you can sign it yourself which was a big hassle to do. For a fanboy you sure are misinformed bro. It's okay, i'm just more technology inclined. I did use Nokia up until the N900, that piece of crap was the last Nokia I owned. E71 was my all time favorite, then N95, then N91. N900 was total let down, N800 tablet sucked too. I sold that quickly. Got android and never looked back.

                              Not everyone knows how to jailbreak? You go to a website and follow the instructions? With jailbreaking being fully LEGAL, sites popping up with tutorials is a dime a thousand. Unless your country filtered sites pertaining on how to jailbreak then those people who searched for information on said jailbreaking shops can search on how to jail break it themselves.

                              Also if you asked me for your credit card information with the intent to use and i gave it to you then its not "piracy". Its consent use. Also taking credit information is not piracy, its called identity theft. Piracy in this content would be illegally obtaining digital copy righted materials with the intent to redistribute in which you did. Wrong analogy bro, wrong analogy.

Nokia are still the top phone maker, they're bigger than next 3 manufacturers combined. It's only Symbian's leadership that was questioned by an incorrect report by Canalys. Gartner proved that Canalys report is wrong.

BTW, can i borrow your credit card, i need to purchase some tunes from the net.

                                  since when i meantioned the word 'sms' in my post.

                                  and about jailbreaking, not everyone know how to do it. in my country you could send it to a phone shop, but they love nothing more to charge you at a very high price for it. and i still remember a post from TqCi saying that apple fans never use jailbreaking. i was ROFL

Apple is making everything restrictive so that they can gain maximum profit, and in terms of consumers like us, we lost the freedom over full control on our own gadget even after spending 600 dollars on one. Putting that aside (which is just a small issue), bigger issues to me remain what i mentioned - important features missing. Thats why I'm not really happy with Nokia switching to WP7. Im not against it, but many features are going to be missing, and we wont know how long it takes for Windows Phone to be updated up to the extent of equal amount of features as symbian. Probably not until WP8 is released.
