"What is this fascination you have with the Q* word? I did not use that word in my post you are replying to. Only Nokia. Positively I hope since this is the Nokia thread."

Neato... bet you're gloating over springing the trap. At least we finally provoked Uncle to speak up for his animist beliefs. Though I noticed he didn't specify the problems Gorilla Game has in crossing over to mobile telecommunication companies. Go, Maurice!

BTW - I *did* get picked by SI a couple of weeks ago... it just happened to coincide with the day when my posts were completely Q-neutral. I rest my case.

I've been working on the Nokia cabal (which really is like a cult, only much more sinister) - but Finns are generally too honest to take part and Americans tend to cluster around their own picks. Which leaves an empty hole where Nokia hype might exist in a fundamentally just universe.

I have no doubt that EDGE may take over where GPRS tapers off... the interesting thing about Ericsson's new phone line-up is the size of GPRS/HSCSD/WAP/Bluetooth/tri-mode handsets. They actually pack all that hardware in without weight or size trade-offs. Which gets us into the core question of mobile internet market - how to offer global roaming *and* data transfer speed *and* Bluetooth simultaneously this year without compromising weight and size?

It just might take a genuinely mature digital standard to achieve that.
