I wouldn’t be suprised if Nokia released a smartphone that copies the Jesus phone, including have 8 gigabytes of storage, making buying and keeping up with storage cards unnecessary. That is a great idea.”

You have no idea why iPhone was hyped so much, do you? You have no idea, that the ‘MARKETING’ not the actual technology, that allowed Jobs to go after the senseless public, who can’t distinguish between a ‘good’ phone and a phone that looks good. You see Steve Jobs was targeting people like you, who would be easily swayed by over-hyped information regarding iPhone’s ‘supposed’ technological advance, that you would repeat them on various websites as if they were true. And in turn, you have become part of Jobs’ personal marketing machine. Congratulation.
Why would I want a phone that can’t take even rudimentary video, and must sign up with Apple for anything I might want over the internet? That I have to ‘SEND’ back to Apple for change of battery after 200th charge? What, that about 1~2 years of usage? And I have to ‘PAY’ to have the battery changed, not just the cost of the battery itself? Are you kidding me? All that for the supposed ‘EXPERIENCE’ of iPhone?
If N95 was marketed by Jobs, there wouldn’t be just long line up at the Nokia store. It would’ve caused war and strife among nations, and End of Day might have been predicted. Buy one. Use it. Compare with your phantom iPhone.

“as many as a million stood in line for on June 29″

Uh- no. Apple sold about 200k units between Apple and AT&T stores opening day. From open of business Friday to close of business Sunday, Apple MIGHT have sold 500k units. They might have shipped 3 million units, but they sold FAR less than that. Those who stood in line would have done themselves a favor by showing up an hour later to casually stroll into the store and pick one up. It was like buying a generator in December of 1999 all over again.

Oh- see, I forgot again. It’s all about the experience, right?

So anyway- as many as a million did not stand in line on June 29th. As many as 300 people stood in line at some of the Apple stores. That’s about it.

A million people…? One more look into the fun filled world that is your reality.

The good news is that the firmware will also be available for the current N95 phones, so it seems to indicate that the new phone is technically the same, but maybe with an 8GB card included and a new design – or it could fit the description by n-psycho above.

This is yeah, of course, a good point about Apple’s marketing and sex appeal amongst the general (US at least) public, but can you imagine if Nokia only brought out, say, one high-end and one low-end device every year? It’d be much more of an event, surely.

With all these beautiful numbers, what I’m really waiting for is the first company to invent a pill that makes my right cheek stop producing oil that gets all over the big, gorgeous screen. Or maybe just a phone with window-wipers.
