I am not an expert but I am sure dualcore is not the only thing that makes the phone fast/best. We have seen it before with Qualcom 800mhz vs Cortex A8 600Mhz.

The same goes for mobilecameras is like when manufactors make us think 12mpix mobilecamera is better than a DSLR camera of 6mpix. 12 mpix on a mobile camera is so damn pointless when the sensor is so damn small. Yet people a dumb enough buy theyr arguments and think its better. Some maybe even think 12mpix mobilecamera is better than 6mpix DSLR camera.
Thing is, Nokia aren't going to be able to explain that on a billboard advert. your average consumer is going to say, "the xPhone's got dual core, nokia hasn't. xPhone's better. xPhone's got 12mp camera, nokia's got 10mp. xPhone's gonna take better pictures. Nokia's got 1024x768 resolution, but xPhone has retina display. xPhone screen is as hi rez as an eyeball. xPhone's better'

God, it annoys the hell out of me, I don't know how it must feel to actually be one of the team behind a product like that...
