            comnut, 21 Oct 2011guys.. you do know that mobile phone GPS is not as good as ... moreDo you know your phone browser is not as good as a PC browser? Do you know your phone games are a joke compared to console and PC games? Do you know the touchscreen keyboard is a torture device compared to a full-size actual keyboard? And don't get me started on the joke a phone camera is compared to a DSLR.

            But no one wants to lug around all those devices everywhere, so I'd rather have a phone with good GPS navigation than a crappy one or not at all.

Nokia doesn make only cellphones, have u heard about Nokia Siemens network? For your kind information NSN Is the leader in innovationg new technology for GSM Networks. Its latest Dual full rate technology increases the network capacity by 100% that is double so that samsung users like u can use rich data speeds. Also Worlds first GSM Network was started or u can say developed by Nokia.

But it can be possible because of the plastic. I think you just hate Samsung. Go for your precious Nokia that is failling hard. If you think that market share gonna change just like that because of Nokia wp7 XD you are funny. I don't know what's your experience with Samsung but you need to go see the movie of Samsung group on YouTube. There are just too big!!! Nokia is only a cell phone manufacture.

                        [deleted post]It's not Android, mostly Samsung. The other brands fans dont constantly busybody & bash in threads of other brands. What they dont realise is that being obnoxious only turns off the readers from the very brand they are promoting.

                          Now that's what is happening to Nokia for not listening to the people! Should they go to Android, then they will emerge on top! They will have hard time catching up Samsung, HTC, Apple...

                          It is up to Nokia to retain or not the Symbian, MeeGo, and some of the Nokia OS as long as they will adapt Android OS...

                            guys.. you do know that mobile phone GPS is not as good as the real thing??
                            If you want good accuracy and signal, get a garmin or tom tom... you get what you pay for!!

                            Yes, nokia hardware is the best! BUT the directors are brain-dead.. :( they think 'big money' MS can save them, but I think they will get 'absorbed'... :(

                            Big joke was the first tv ad for windows mobile was NOT using nokia, but HTC!!!!

As for Samsung, my 'test' with Samsung Wave & my colleague's 'test' with S1 was enough

                                    Guys why u people are worrying? Nokia is doing well compared to previous quarter and offcourse we will see the revenue and profit graph climbing in coming quarters. If Nokia manages to over come this pressure then in future nothin can beat it. Many companies just shutdown when they reach this cycle but only a company which has great potential to overcome will survive.

                                        I will still guarantee Samsung's plastic will not last 3 years, not even 2.5 years, in hot tropical conditions. The last I heard, they're going with the 'flow' & putting some metal in the latest Samsung Wave
