hmmm...dunno.
different kind of ad though.
they sure do think different on the other side of the pond.
However, Nokia are missing a ticket with the US market - I think this type of campaign just looks a bit euro-kooky in the US and doesn't really get the product noticed.

Symbian sucks because it's not iOS, nokia sucks because it won't adopt android... I can go further, but these are the key points of average consumer's point of view. Former two (Apple and Google) are popular just because of US mainstream media which promotes them to the stars...

Second, at least some of the points are true, because N8 is not an as high-end device as iPhone 4 -- thus, lower processing power, less memory, and why forget the screen resolution?
Third, two of the arguments are idiotic -- both devices have unreplaceable battery, so why use this as an argument; saying that Symbian is worse than iOS is highly subjective and most likely flawed.
Stupid article written by a 14-year old...

Analysis by someone older than 14
Processing power seems higher on N8
Ah, you probably don't have one, becuase it wasn't released yet. Well thats funny, you see - I myself don't tend to rank something before I even try it, but I guess you're something special, ain't ya?
As long as people will accept crap, it will be financially profitable to dispense it...
