No I can't get the ThinPhone or any new phone now other than a StarTac? Perhaps this is all as it should be, why send new phones where there's no competition but is there more competition in Phoenix? The way you take a market is by filling a void. I think Tero is right to question the model. Why not try and take the market if you want to play in it? And why aren't the Japanese phones with new ASICs available here now?

Obviously Nokia has trouble with the phones. Hopefully these troubles will continue but I'm not counting on it. And I agree that right now the tri-mode doesn't seem to offer any particular advantage and is more expensive.

Motorola seems to be solving their problems though. Even if as MarginMike says the Sony sounds better than a StarTac, that doesn't stop BAM from ordering and people from buying them does it?
