These devies follow Nokia's strategy to push advanced features to lower prices phones. Actually, there have excellent specs for their prices. Comparisons with high-end phones are of course useless.

To be fair these phones are aimed at the kind of people who bought the "music Xpress" phones.
My partner has a 5800(?) and she would probably upgrade to something like this.
The problem is Nokia could take a slice of the "premium" devices (£400 upwards) and benefitted from greater profit margins.
Nokia are relegating themselves to the "budget"-end of the market and are benefitting from volume sales.
While everyone else are innovating, pushing people into premium devices and services Nokia are investing in the lowest common denominator.
I can't see how Nokia can profit from an application store when people are buying mid-low end devices.

ok, i get it, $180 eur ($244) for a E5 means these will be under $200 pretty quick, and that makes me happy i never bought an E72 for $400. E71 was by far the best 'phone' ive ever had, except for its sucky camera. this is cool, though i was hoping for S^3.
funny that their consumer level phones beat the hell out of apples flagship for features

How many commercial apps are available for the n900?
Sygic Maps and a commercial game?

There's a reason why Nokia got N and E series. N8 is still going to be announced this April.
