Nokia's New All-In-One Phone

conq writes "BusinessWeek has a piece on Nokia's new phone, introduced today and hitting the shelves in July. The N93, costing $660, will supposedly fill all of your needs for electronic equipment on the go. From the article: 'Should anyone miss the point, Nokia's press extravaganza in a spiffed-up Berlin warehouse ended with a video in which the camera slowly panned across a tableau of dusty, discarded electronic equipment -- including digital cameras and a cobweb-covered iPod. The message: Nokia plans to make these products obsolete.'"

Thanks but no thanks

Im sorry but until the all in one device can hold 40Gb of Mp3s then I don't care, until the all in one device can take 10 Megapixel pictures at 1600X1200 then I don't care, Until the all in one device isn't taking a gamble at the portable gaming insdustry then I don't care. Until the all in one device isn't an over-sized, expensive, clumsy, POS with lots of shiney half-assed features added on then I don't give a damn. I'm sorry but the reason the 40Gb ipod isn't smaller and more battery friendly is becuase it can't be. The reason the 10MP fuji fine pix isn't cheaper, and smaller is beacuse it can't be. The reason the DS isn't smaller is because nintendo hasn't released the 6th color yet. This is why no one is going to buy a $660 all-in-one esspicailly a nokia whom is know for their cheaper line. It just doesn't stack up.

Moron: Don't buy the fucking phone then. There exist phones that have no camera. Buy one of them. How you got modded up is a mystery. How you could be upset by the percentage of phones that fit your criteria is mind-boggling. You can find phones that do what you want. It's not like there's a limited phone-space, and with each new phone your choice goes down. "Wonderful, they've released another model of VW bug, another freaking car I can't take offroading". That's not what it was meant for, dumbass.
