Please take note that I did mention, outside USA, perhaps I should have added, western countries . I'm from Asia. And heck, people still use SD cards, USB on the go, bluetooth, due to the expensive internet data rates. I use them almost everyday, try to avoid transfering files thru internet, which is added cost, and.... slow, esp if large files. If one needs to get home to transfer something, might as well use the thumb drive.

The example I related are real complaints from users in my country, some on Nokia FB page(not sure if deleted by now), some in Nokia Support Discussion

This kinda stuff is something that those from developed countries would not fully understand, unless & until you all experience it yourselves.

Look at the countries where Iphone is not top on the graph.

And btw, this is Maemo forum, so naturally people who prefer open source or customization or non restricted OS would be here. If I go to a Windows Phone page or forum & talk bad abt WP, they can and will tell me to get lost. It's the same over at GSM Arena, My nokia Blog, or anywhere over the internet
