Re: What we do realistically see in the RX-71
 

It took 4 hardware revisons to go from rx-34 to rx-51. It sounded fishy when the next version directly jumped to 71

The Nokia jigsaw!

You can get it on 12 months interest free credit.
As you pay per month they sent you additional components to finish your device.

I'm pretty sure qgil told us that there are no CD-ROM drives in RX-51. ;)

Re: What we do realistically see in the RX-71
 

omg you are right.

the only logical conclusion: rx-51 includes a dvd drive!

Re: What we do realistically see in the RX-71
 

Given rumors that UMD is missing from the upcoming Sony PSP, it is very likely that it has gone into RX-51 instead now!

A tray loading UMD drive... Would that be a shot-glass holder?

They should put a rolling blind type cover on the front LCD with magnets at the bottom to hold it in place. Make it out of kevlar too :D

something like this:

Re: What we do realistically see in the RX-71
 

as long as there's a 770-style hard cover (thats why they call it RX-71), i don't care about additional cup holders and stuff. ;)

Re: What we do realistically see in the RX-71
 

The cup holder will be a Blueray drive. But since it's a slot drive without a tray, the cup holder comes as a little plate of metal that you stick into the drive for that purpose. When not in use as a cup holder, the plate can be folded into a stylish robust case for the RX-71. Since it's magnetic, you can also stick it to your fridge.
But to be able to play Blueray discs while using the cup holder, Nokia registered a patent for placing a disc into a hole in the holder so that you can put the disc together with the holder into the drive and the holder will sort of work like a caddy (somebody still remember the old CD-ROM drive with caddy for the Amiga 500? ;) ).
Nokia will show the device on a press conference on April 1st. ;)

No information on this RX-71?

This would be stupid to buy the RX-51 if the RX-71 is better and out after a little time.
