I've never liked anything Nokia's made since day one, on the software end, and I guess that legacy continues (I knew it would!)

It's something about that vertical signal bar, and the way icons are organized that just irks me.]]>Apr 9th 2008 6:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/Apr 9th 2008 4:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/Apr 9th 2008 4:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/

Personally I would rather have a iPhone with the current big screen over a smaller screen and less wide phone.

You want a small phone... get the Samsung juke... which is a total joke/waste.]]>Apr 9th 2008 7:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/
What I ment was that its quite hard for something thats essentially a special square with its corners cut off to be ergonomic.

It wasn't fanboyism of the apple/nokia kind, just more a general obs.

More than likely the same people who ranked me low there will do the same to this, but I fear ye not!]]>Apr 9th 2008 10:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/
Nokia, I will be happy for you to prove me wrong.]]>Apr 9th 2008 5:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/Why cant they ever take perfect pictures of these prototypes? ;)
Thought it should still be long way before this thing is released(probally on time to compete with X1?) so we will see how it shapes out....if this even is the real one.]]>Apr 9th 2008 5:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/Apr 9th 2008 5:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/Apr 9th 2008 10:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/
That would be camera for video calling, the auto-focus camera will be on the back. You may not be accustomed to video calling as you are usually licking your iPhones, but most other phones have 3G ;)

I wouldn't be surprised if they opted for the stylus interface based on the fact that had they gone the route of 'touch', they wouldn't have been able to do it properly for love nor money anyway.

And how many Nokia patents do you think that Apple are already infringing upon? I think Nokia could quite easily copy anything on the iPhone without worrying about Apple's lawyers too much.]]>Apr 9th 2008 7:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/
In phones? Not many, if any. Apple haven't released what could be described as a 'traditional handset' into the mobile market that would have done in terms of its design... and the iPhones OS is a flavour of OSX, so there's nothing 'third party' or Nokia in there either.

What about the modem in the iPhone? How many Nokia patents do you think that uses?]]>Apr 9th 2008 12:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/09/nokias-touchscreen-tube-out-in-the-wilds/
