srashdotu writes "The Inquirer is reporting rumors that the plug will be pulled on the N-Gage due to the complete closure of the Nokia's Germany production facility by Q1 2006. Nokia has refuted this, however, claiming "We're looking at the strongest line-up of games yet for N-Gage. There's been so much money and effort poured into the system we're not going to pull out now."." Given recent events it is not hard to imagine this being true, though.

    Now they don't have to explain to people that "No, our Ngage is something completely different."

    PS: If anyone can explain to me what the hell "Ngage/xTeNd/Nsure" is supposed to mean [after what, three or four years of trying to decipher it?] then please attach a star to your forehead, and a big, shit-eating, teacher's pet grin to your face.
