I said it on the phone specs discussion board, but this is SO underpowered to be a flagship device. Also looks like they they didn't really work that hard at doing anything innovative on Symbian 3. Not looking good for Nokia!

When you've got an OS with the microkernal of Symbian^3, it's so fast and efficient that you can run a more basic processor without losing speed. What you do lose with this processor is the high battery consumption.

Many S60 phones run on slower processors than competing phones from their competitors but you never hear that these phones are too slow. These processors are plenty fast to run the best multi-tasking phones out there.

Have you used one? No.

Neither have I. So let's allow the phone to be fully reviewed before we go bashing it.

I know, I know...iOS 4 and Android are SOOOOOOOOOO much more appealing.

Geezus.
