All kudos to Nokia for recognizing their AppStore deficiencies and doing something positive about it, but you have got to wonder why they screwed up so badly. It is not as though they didn't have a proven model upon which to copy and improve. I hope they get it right this time because second chances are rare, and there are no third chances.

Would have been less offensive with Poo-Poo.... clueless, completely clueless.

Arington-ware? That's when the hype around the prototype is sufficient for the device to defy gravity.

Endgaget-ware? That's when a prototype attracts more postings on a tech blog than the number of devices actually built and sold.

@appsman
Genius! That must be why the Core2Duo iMacs with the exact same screen design don't fail then.

Slipping? Hardly. We had three brand new Dell laptops we ordered turn up DOA last week (out of 6). The company exchanged them without question. QA in the PC business has shifted to the consumer.....

10X the people should equate to 10X the profit.

Bell and Telus were CDMA only until they realised they'd lose the roaming charges for the winter olympics. That spurred them to make the investments in HSPDA+. This is an experiment in motion. Rogers has had the iPhone for 1.2 years, rolled out MMS and tethering with OS 3.0 and has had few glitches. We'll see how well the new Telus/Bell shared network copes with the iPhone - probably pretty well is my guess.

Samsung os too good for Dell - that would be a step up.

Actually, the iPhone "went" to China without wifi. Lack of 3G in (late 2009) is like driving a horse-drawn cart to work.

Sexy as in thin as a supermodel and with the brains of one?

Why? There are far, far better devices that actually offer 3G.
