Hey guys, please stop hating on the resistive screens, they do have their uses. I live in China and I can tell you right now that resistive screens are absolute gold when it comes to looking up characters etc.. Doing it on an iPhone just makes you feel silly and clumbsy. I know the N900 doesn't support Chinese yet (last I checked anyways) but when it does I assure you the chinese cusomers will appreciate the resistive screen.

Here's actually where Nokia shows that it's an international company, making phones for the whole world, while apple mainly makes them with US customers in mind.

I don't think that's 100% true. I Dunno. I was walking downtown Madrid last night, and I saw 2 models recur. Blackberry 8300 series, and the iphone in white (among the super buff men) and black among the women. LOL.

Yea I should probably have written western customers instead of US customers.

It's fairly big here in China as well, or the pirated one is. But that is mostly based on the fact that it's really the only really cool and flashy phone that's available, people find the screen keyboard and inability to write characters manually annoying. It's just obvious that it was made for someone else really
