Calling all Nokia & Symbian geniuses: Am I wrong?
1. If it runs S60, it's a smartphone, regardless of the featureset. To argue otherwise is to say that any other phone running S60 is not a smartphone, which is completely silly. It would be accurate to say it's not a flagship smartphone, sure.
2. According to the rumored spec sheet, it has roughly the same features as the Nokia N78. Would you also argue, then, that the N78 is not a smartphone?
3. While I think we can all agree that Nokia's first foray into a touchscreen smartphone since the 7710 is likely to be a disaster in terms of user experience, I think it's rather irresponsible to completely disregard it before it's even been made official.
its a mass mass market product
would you want this or a viewty/6500 etc.
I'm not sure why the 5310 comes with music is being launched at the same time.
well obviously its a chip as chips alternative - but still.
but what do i know :-) ? anyways i will stop kibbitizing and resume waiting patiently for it to come out before commenting further!
but yes - the mass 'normob' market lapped up the 6300/6500.
i'm not happy at all.
