A) Don't know why this site keeps opening in russian for me. (me no speak russian). Same on engadget too.
B) Calm down. It's not even a 'review' of a device. It's opinon and from what i've read quite a biased, hateful review on an unfinished, unpolished Nokia device. It's has one of the best hardware configs out there. It's OS is symbian^3, only a transit phase before ^4 at end of this year.
C) Not every single device that Nokia release will be aimed at killing the iphone/being more funky than the Android etc etc. Nokia release tens of handsets a year. It's just another phone. If you want to compare OS and Hardware then use N900 as a benchmark.
D) Nokia are VERY popular in the rest of the world and this handset will probably sell very well in the middle east/Asia (huge markets btw). Not everyone wants Android styled OS that require 3G/2G which a lot of people dont have access to.
On my recent trip to Asia I saw a villager standing by in the street with his Nokia (7210) plugged into an extension lead outside a shop. The phone lay there in the dirt just charging. Thats the reach of Nokia. I can guarantee you, Android/Apple will not take place of ease of use/affordible handsets for the wider market. Nokia make phones for everyone. Not just fanboys.

Read it. I do not think villagers in cambodia are exactly Nokia's cor target... and the drammatic financial and economical situation should let you think...
SORRY FOR THE POST... I DIDN'T NOTICE HTE OTHER 3D. MEA CULPA!

Shame.
Symbian it is a dead platform. Android it's eating it up. In dec 2010 there will be only flop phones using Symbian...
N900 it's the only vital device you have mr. Nokia and you are letting it rot? You're to be finished asd IBM. R.I.P.

Anyone who has travelled the world knows you can find a Nokia charger in the remotest of places but not one for any of the HTC devices.
Thank you.

The navigation icon has understandably a compass in it, and has had a very long time.

Thank you.
And you should probably study the theory of the subsidiary markets.
In china what you are describing it's the huge transition FROM symbian TO android.
You welcome

Correct me if I'm wrong - but "dead" platforms don't tend to be upgraded and redesigned...?
