So we're agreed the battery isn't an issue?

If you've already invested in it and it's not cheap then you really need to find a way to profit from it don't you?

And don't bother with the cannibalising sales of other more expensive devices in their own range argument, that's only valid if their other devices are actually selling.

NOKIA desperately need a big hit right now.

So the 311 goes up very slightly by about EUR 7 but it's MUCH more desirable - sounds like a plan to me.
