I believe it has already been confirmed that it is indeed a NOK chipset. The Verizon rep I spoke to confirmed it and Puck from the Nok thread as well. He spoke to Nok IR and says they confirmed. Even if Nok chips prove inferior, if they can make an adequate chip that gets Verizon to buy their phones will sell - and sell well. As far as the technology goes they only have to worry about Verizon - once they are in the average Joe off the street certainly won't know the difference. The Nok 5185i stands out next to the other phones Verizon sells such as Audiovoxx and even Kyo. This phone will appeal to new subs greatly at $40 with contract. Other models will be out soon it looks like - it would be nice to confim that all of these models are in fact using Nok chips. Claude
