Calling all Nokia & Symbian geniuses: Am I wrong?
Good to see you back, Samantha. You've been missed!
Aww thanks Ewan!
Feels good to be back!
Samantha.
Erm, I don't believe I have. I have a friend who at the moment has an N80, purely because her other phone died or something. I'll look out for the N95's though!

Hardware sales are more influenced by the channel and the deals they're incentivised to make.
Philosophical thought for the day. The only value in an empty iPod is its potential. (think about this whilst adopting an SJ, zen outlook on life).
:-)
Part of the problem is that there are soooo many new phones being launched all the time and most of them are the same but with more ... (music in this case), that they pass the normob by. As David said, for most people it's the deal that counts.
I am surprised that there isn't more talk of phones in a sixth form, but I suppose this is a sign that phones have become a commodity and they will only be talked about when they are groundbreaking.
However, even with the Nokia, it is offering something different, and it's really trying to appeal to the young market; it just isn't. It's very odd.
I agree with you about the commodity thing too.
Thanks,
Samantha.
