Also, what's with the "featurephone" remark about the X6? It's more smartphone than the iPhone ever was - multitasking is in the very definition of smartphone!]]>Sep 2nd 2009 5:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/02/nokias-x6-follows-the-5800s-footsteps-while-the-x3-brings-ov/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/02/nokias-x6-follows-the-5800s-footsteps-while-the-x3-brings-ov/
Even the iPhone lacks basic PDA functions like memos with categories, to-do lists, and the means to sync those things with the computer. And NO, there's not an app for that, because Apple inexplicably prevents developers' apps from syncing with apps on the computer (unless you want to use some hokey workaround, like an intermediary server on the Internet somewhere or a wireless kluge).]]>Sep 2nd 2009 5:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/02/nokias-x6-follows-the-5800s-footsteps-while-the-x3-brings-ov/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/02/nokias-x6-follows-the-5800s-footsteps-while-the-x3-brings-ov/Sep 2nd 2009 5:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/02/nokias-x6-follows-the-5800s-footsteps-while-the-x3-brings-ov/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/02/nokias-x6-follows-the-5800s-footsteps-while-the-x3-brings-ov/

There is a small market for noncamera phones. Some employers don't like phones with cameras.

This site is one reason why some development houses frown on camera phones.

you need to watch the keynote of Anssi Vanjoki to understand why the X6 is priced like this.
He also compares the ComesWithMusic with iTunes, so better watch it. I won't waste my
time in explaining you. :)]]>Sep 2nd 2009 11:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/02/nokias-x6-follows-the-5800s-footsteps-while-the-x3-brings-ov/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/02/nokias-x6-follows-the-5800s-footsteps-while-the-x3-brings-ov/Sep 2nd 2009 4:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/02/nokias-x6-follows-the-5800s-footsteps-while-the-x3-brings-ov/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/02/nokias-x6-follows-the-5800s-footsteps-while-the-x3-brings-ov/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BxhWNEi-3mg]]>Sep 2nd 2009 6:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/02/nokias-x6-follows-the-5800s-footsteps-while-the-x3-brings-ov/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/02/nokias-x6-follows-the-5800s-footsteps-while-the-x3-brings-ov/

Apologists dismissed this shambles with, "Oh, well, you need a SMART phone to do that stuff."

Take a look at the point "wide touch screen" - it says "...made from scratch-resistant glass"; clearly a capacitive touchscreen.

I wonder if Engadget will amend the post and remove the snarky resistive TS remark (how come the HTC Touch 2 post didn't get one of those, anyway, Engadget?
