All these pies that Nokia has their fingers in are half-baked:

Maybe. But I buy CDs and do my own encodings from those.

[*]Gaming - NGage
What, again? They should either make a success of it or let it die gracefully - and never ever resurrect it again.

[*]Personal Information Management - Long history of Symbian E devices
Pathetic. My 10+ year old Psion Series 5 does PIM better than any E series phone. Heck even my 15+ year old Series 3 does it better. In any case the PIM functions on an E series phone is practically the same dismal rubbish that is on the N series.

The only OVI branded thing that is worth using is Maps - but only on Symbian at the moment since the Maemo version is utter crap.
