Yes, Vodapfhone can always be found in the spin of certain circles.

On the other hand there is something schizo there, because
on some odd occasions they sound really normal, particularly
on the really technical side??

But the Swedish 3G auctions were interesting, and the
follow ups will be even more interesting, until 99.5%
of the population is covered to their swedish necks
in 3G network radiation, the way the auction rules demanded,
at no license cost, just the beauty of it.

P.S. Has FCC already sorted out that special US license??
Will everyone get a share in it, kind of dropping it to
the dogs in the backyard, or did the trick work??

The threat I see for Nokia comes from Bluetooth. If and when the phone part is reduced to a small inexpensive transponder/relay unit sittin' in the shirt pocket or briefcase and the expensive media terminal with nifty interfaces is on the other end of the Bluetooth connection. Then we will see many companies producing such terminals. I hope Nokia can protect it self with unique functions, services, proprietary communication protocols, compression algorithms etc but if Bluetooth takes off, the door opens for competition on the terminal end.
