Infidel !!! You are right of course, but it's not only Nokia. Compared with a few years back, the situation today is about choosing something that doesn't suck too much. It used to be choosing something that really is cool.

For something too be really cool, a necessity is HW keyboard, FM tx, SD card, top CPU and so on. Such a device doesn't exist any more. The 808 is close, PureView definitely is cool. But it's a EOL product. So the only thing worth waiting for is a Lumia Pureview running WP8. Otherwise you might as well give up and get a SGS3, or worse an iPhone. If the modern definition of a smartphone suits you, then you cannot get anything better than the SGS3 today. If that's too expensive, or too large, then a Sony is unbeatable. Excellent devices, what is wrong is the concept of a smartphone has changed.

So, I will wait for a Lumia PureView announcement, and if that disappoints for some reason, then the 808 it is. For now I'm quite happy with my Lumia 800, the N9 is already more than half way into the drawer. Compared with the rest of the smartphone landscape that is as inspiring as a foggy marshland, the Lumias are much better devices than they (in general) are given credit for.

Back to the stocks. Today will be a somewhat interesting day.
