Nokia N78 available for Americans who haven’t already got an iPhone

Started by Ewan · 1 year ago

    "“Offering the robust feature set expected from an Nseries device, the integration of these features with Nokia’s new suite of Ovi services is what makes the Nokia N78 a perfect companion for a connected and mobile lifestyle,” said William Plummer, Vice President of Go-to-Market for Nokia. “Whether using GPS to find my way across town, adding geotag information to the images I capture and upload to Share on Ovi, or using the FM transmitter to listen to my music collection through my car stereo, the Nokia N78 keeps me connected and entertained wherever I go.”"

    Can we have a 'No More Plastic Words' campaign please? You KNOW that Nokia PR hacks flicked this back & forth until they came up with this utter, utter drivel. I'd bet anything that Mr William Plummer said no such thing. If you doorstopped him and asked what he thought of the phone and then transcribed it verbatim, it would probably be:

    "We're really excited about the N78, um, people who are out a lot can now use the GPS to find their way around, walking, driving, whatever. If you snap a picture it will help you upload it to Flickr straight away, which is great if you are on holiday. It will even put it on a map for you, using the GPS information. Your friends can keep up with you, add comments, ask questions, it's all about sharing and interacting more. And in the rental car you can stream your songs to the radio using the FM transmitter, so you don't need a load of CD's with you."

    No More Plastic Words.

    Grrr...
