@Texrat
Welcome to the Internets. I'm starting to feel that it was stupid to laugh to newspaper journalists complains on how net bloggers are taking their jobs and doing terrible work.

Seems like people really love tabloid style and do not have skills or brains to read them. Sad and scary. Collective mass of teengers just running from place to place and taking everything as its written.

HTC is jealous of Nokia's position and history. But they are the up and coming darlings of the media. They are fantastic for the phone industry as well with the range of high end handsets they push out.

Reminds me alot of boxing when an eager new fighter tries to goad an old champion into a fight. Usually by calling him out post win.

They thrive on sheer sensationalism. It carries more currency with the reactionary citizens of the internet than fact. Witness this thread and a few trillion like it.

Pathetic.

Friggin' Gizmodo and their anti-Nokia bs.

It's really hard finding a neutral blog these days!

I can hardly believe that. First, as others already said, HTC was the one to hijack Nokia's event in the first place.
Second, I have a different idea of top-notch phones. HTC IMHO still produces low-quality Taiwanese plastic phones ready to be dumped after some months of use.
I had 2 HTC and would say, never again!
On the first one the color was coming off after a short time and screen's brightness couldn't be adjusted, and the keyboard slider on the second one started to make creaking noises after a few months of use like an old door that needed some oil. Oh, and both had crappy cameras, too.

Guys, stop treating these companies as if they're people...

betcha that both camps are happy with what had transpired... (in the end) it's a pretty lighthearted jab at each other and they got PLENTY of press coverage for what they've spent.
