Well, I'm new to Nokia, and not familiar with their business practices...nor do I care. Right now, they have a phone available that suits my needs more than any other, and I bought it. Luckily, it was available stateside, and has proven issue free for me...except for the USB port coming detached on my first 900.

My point was that its a two-way street. If Americans wanted foreign (your product/concern here), we would have it. If foreign mfgs. felt there was a market for their product here, they'd sell it. My issue is that either way, all the cool 'ish I'm interested in, isn't readily available in the states. There's nothing better than watching 6-month tape delay of DTM, in favor of 12hrs per day of NASCAR coverage...WTF?!?!?!?


I was only poking fun at the Top Gear post because its one of my fav shows, but do you know how freakin' hard it was finding a 52cm steel Colnago in the US in the late 90's? I had to settle for a 51, and took years to setup so I wouldn't have back pain.
