Im from the UK, which is a fairly well developed country, The USA is so much more developed, yes it does have *alot* of bad points, but then again what country doesn't

Well to be honest it's quite different not knowing where states are and not knowing where countries are. Especially when the country in question is so powerful..like Malta ^^. However I seriously doubt if even Americans know where all the 50 states are. Sure some might know but most will not.

The point was that America is apparentely trying to discredit Nokia so that it gains more market share. Which sucks really. That's cheating and dirty business practice. Android and iPhone aren't technically better than Nokia devices. They have their ups and they have their downs.

This is only my opinion, but I feel that even if Nokia comes up with a device superior in every way to its competition, it will still be discredited and regarded as worse. Just take a look at the statement 100,000 in five months. How could anyone be so stupid as to confuse weeks with months? And why didn't they correct the title..at least at first. The current title reads: 100,000 devices in 5 months..more like 5 weeks (updated). That sounds like a smart*ss comment more than a correction. 100,000 in 5 weeks is not bad..but in months..it's just sad. Even more discrediting. People won't easily buy a product that's not popular. There are some that like to be unique..but most people want to be safe and buy what everyone's buying.

How come you never see mistakes like this regarding Apple or Google? How come all Nokia's faults are listed but none of Apple's or Google's are listed? I don't believe they're flawless. At all. I used the iPhone. It dropped some calls, sometimes crashed, sometimes slowed down, took a long time to boot etc. I'm not saying it's a bad device..but the internet makes you think it is perfect.

I look at GSMArena only for reviews. At least they are more fair than others. In a review or comparison I expect that it is done fairly. If you are in any way biased, you shouldn't do reviews.
