Look, gerbick, calm down. What is wrong with you? We're having a discussion about phones, that's all. I respect your opinion even without agreeing with it. Maintain your composure and don't take things so personally.

I found it pretty controversial and similar to typical Apple speak when you brought up a nascent platform and device and said it didn't have OBEX push. I'm pretty sure you know that is a rarety for smart or feature phones. The 2004 Moto RAzr even has it. Mentioning one that doesn't and probably soon will was grabbing at straws, and only made you look desperate to make a point, and you actually looked bad doing it.

When I mentioned Nokia owning Navteq, the company that supplies most mapping apps with its data, you brought up Wayfinder. HUH? When I mentioned navigation apps, you brought up the free Google Maps, which is on all devices. What if you brought up browser speed and I compared the iPhone to Opera mini on the N95? Even though its not installed, its easily installed for free, and every device has it.. but the iphone. It seemed you were just seeking any way you could diss Nokia and rebut me, and that is controversial by definition.



I was simply comparing Ovi Maps, which is built into Nokia devices, and Apple's Google maps, which isnt special since Nokia Nseries can get that too for free.

And there is no "us". I'm here for me, and even though I'm known in Nokia circles, I'm not here to clique up with anyone, just to promote and learn about a new product my readers are interested in. But I do hate the iPhone, and love to show why.

OBEX isn't small. its free file transfer compatible with 85% of all phones out there. Don't act so aloof about it, when people in developing countries lack other data connections, and this is the only way of file sharing. And its not that slow for small objects, and Nokia's target audience is larger than gerbick island. By the way, how do you file tranfer via wifi with a device without it? How do you transfer via USB to a feature phone without USB or with a proprietary plug?

I don't think a 250 MB file is typical for bluetooth, but at least its possible. OBEX is mostly for small files like pictures and install files.

And don't say "you people". I'M saying this to you, no one else. It makes you sound like those snooty people that think they are above all others. Nor am I f...ed up, as you say. I just think this device is for many people, and what we do with them may not be what others across the globe will.

I'm very in touch with the industry, as my job requires, and I'm not singular minded, but I know a single person I don't need to waste much more time speaking to, and am done wasting time listening to. Get a vocabulary, grow up, and just don't respond to my comments anymore, since you have so little time. I'd love you to save it hunting for a USB cable to tie that potty mouth of yours shut.
