Show me where I was rude. Here though, to satisfy your argument:
[MiniMe] You were rude because you told people to get real, like we're all fantasizing. Moreover you generalize things in an sarcastic and un-argumented manner. Just to confirm that you were rude, read for yourself your own statement below:

Let me know when you have moved out of your grandma's basement.

".. [I] assumed that since it looks like the N81 it must be built like the N81".
According to your logic I can conclude that "all the things in the world are the same, but have differences".

Again, English>You. Show me where I said this: "all the things in the world are the same, but have differences". However, if 2 phones made by the same manufacturer, look the same, run the same software, guess what...you can safely conclude that they are largely the same.
Show me where did I say that you said this "all the things..". They look the same? You were able to distinguish this from a couple of pictures only? You're good.. We can "safely" conclude? Why safely? because you said so??

"I have a Nokia E61i which has body parts made of aluminium. So not "ALL" their phones are made of plastic. Similarly, their "usual plastic" is not cheap."

Next time we are talking about N series devices please restrict your comments to these devices. I have an 8800 which is also not made of plastic. Their usual plastic is cheap as long as it creaks and the paint comes off from normal use (N95-8GB, N95, N81 etc). Also, I would like to know how many of these phones you actually own because obviously you know NOTHING about them and how well they are built.
You made a general statement about the Nokia phones. Quote: "the usual cheap plastic all their other phones are made of." Please note your own words: "all their other phones" not "all their other N-series phones". You "obviously" know all the phones I have.. Wow..

Facts:

N95-1: requires tape on the back of the sliding part so it doesn't wobble. Paint comes off after 3 months of regular use. Light leaks out of the device like it was meant to be a flashlight.

N95-2: requires tape on the back of the sliding part so it doesn't wobble. Paint comes off after 2 months of regular use.

N81: cheap plastic, crappy slider, easily scratched, paint comes off.

N80: requires tape on the back of the sliding part so it doesn't wobble. Every part that could be loose is loose.
Just how did you exactly determine which part could be loose before it became loose?

That was my last comment. My time is valuable.
You are rude and have no arguments. I quote:
".. [I] assumed that since it looks like the N81 it must be built like the N81".
According to your logic I can conclude that "all the things in the world are the same, but have differences".

"Or hold on, maybe they went with the high quality materials instead of the usual cheap plastic all their other phones are made of."
I have a Nokia E61i which has body parts made of aluminium. So not "ALL" their phones are made of plastic. Similarly, their "usual plastic" is not cheap.

"Get real"
Get lost.
iPhone is far away from BB. But BB is not coming even close to a Nokia. Btw, Nokia users were able to use Google apps (GTalk, GMail, GMaps), various messengers, etc these last years without a data plan on their wifi enabled phones. Unlike a recent BB 8320 (wifi enabled) frustrated owner who gets "No data service available" when trying to use GTalk/YM/GMaps/Opera mini/etc with his own home wifi internet connection. How dumb (thirsty for money) can be BB to do a wifi enable phone and not encourage or develop himself apps which can use this built-in wifi capability THEY put into that phone??
Which part of the "GAMING peripherals" did you not understand?
I need this iPhone pls.. I just want to sell it and get a Nokia instead..
I want this DSLR......
why don't you just pick me? c'mon guys, it's easy..
ok guys. cut the crap and give me a prize. :D
i steve, you not steve
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I am looking for a device that will stream sound from one source to several recipients. For example, I want to stream sound from my TV or stereo to my phone or MP3 player that has radio and Bluetooth capabilities. I have looked into radio transmitters and they seem like a decent choice, but I can't find one that uses external power (USB or from the plug) and I would want one with a transmit range of around 50 meters. Thanks!"
