OMG a phone for $490. It wont sell. No one will pay $490 for a phone. No one has that much money for a phone. We can't afford it. Does it have 3G? It cant be successful without 3G. Does it work with Telenav? OMG!!! It better, cause anyone would be stupid as sh*t to buy this thing if it only had google maps. Will they sell 10,000,000 of these in the first year? If they dont it will be a complete failure. Nokia will go into bankruptcy.
If a company wants to make claims about how "revolutionary" a phone is, how it will change our lives in dramatic fashion, and allow the hype machine to run to near-nuclear-fission levels, it had better back up its claims, and you ought to expect some skepticism anyways, as with any "revolutionary" product. This? It's just a phone with a TV. You get to watch TV on the go. Nokia hasn't claimed anything beyond that.
