Software, software, software, that is the first and biggest challenge. The second one is mid-range S60 devices, and I’ve already voiced my thoughts about it. The third one is marketing, and the fourth is whether or not they should go for an ultimate device, which I have also ranted about in the past. [...] [...] What are the next challenges for Nokia?

People want the best. When I got my N95 it was the greatest phone the world had ever seen. It was marketed that way, it was hyped that way, it sold millions because it was the best. The slogan was 'Its what computers have become' it wasn't 'A good phone with a competitive price point' Bringing out the greatest phone the world has ever seen, as Nokia do on a yearly basis, is worth uncountable millions in free publicity. Why waste that on a phone that very few can afford? Marketing suicide!

For example, if the specs we think the N96 will have are true, it won't have xenon flash and it will come with a 950 mAh battery, an obvious downgrade from the N95 8Gb and the N82. I don't think anybody will ever give us a perfect device. Why would they, anyway? I’d say not a chance.
