"The iPhone is for a different market segment than WinMo phones."
I'm no iPhone zealot (I don't own one) but do you actually believe this to be true?
Go over to any WinMo fansite or forum and you'll see that people are swapping out their WinMo handsets for iPhones in their droves. I'm sick of seeing every second post saying "I thought I'd never leave WM but, after using the iPhone, I'm hooked". Shiny gadgets appeal to geeks no matter what logo is on the front.
With the SDK and ActiveSync support coming, the two markets are only going to cross further.

Mar 19th 2008 7:35PM "CDMA is also Japan and S. Korea, both of whom know how to make a slick device."

- Most Japanese handsets are VERY tightly locked down.

UK High Court finds invalidity in Qualcomm's patent dispute with Nokia {Engadget}
Mar 3rd 2008 5:39PM I love how the patent system works. Basically, you can patent any idea - it doesn't matter whether the idea is already out there or totally batshit crazy.
The only time the validity is checked is when a case comes to court, thus costing everyone involved lots of time and money.
