Having owned several Nokia phones over the years and being locked into their respective providers I don't really see the point in the posters. It's not Apple or Nokias fault that service providers require contracts and try to keep you locked into their service with whatever tactic they can - not limited to locked devices.
I knew it would only be a matter of time before Nokia and every other phone maker would copy the iPhone, but it's pretty low to copy it and then attack it as well. But that's business and Nokia's attacks have not really hurt Apple all that much previously, I'm sure this will be no more significant than something Engadget can write about. And no people, I am not an iPhone nut, I don't have one because I'm locked into another year on my current contract & device so I don't see it as being cost effective to switch. But that will change when the contract is over.
