hell, didnt nokia launch a payment system for their S40 phones specifically aimed at african nations?

i do wonder if N900-like products, ones they get over the early adopter pricing, will sell big in those areas of the world...
Ding! There are many journalists and enterprises here in the US that don't get it. I live in the SouthEast US, this is litereally the last area in the country that gets it about any tech. So imagine my fun at talking mobile anything. Things here have so much legacy behind them that people cannont just move on. Whereas in other places, they see our lessons and start from where we are most advanced, with the lessons learned. Aka, no legacy, aka better usage models.

Oh well. Maybe I'll find a gig with a mobile consultanting company and move to greener pastures... or just create something new here that people get that's not kool-aid
