To all - regarding the Nokia news release "spouting off" about those neat colors, games, alarm clock (!), etc. -- I feel like I have said this many times, but here goes again ... the carriers have a more viable business with CDMA systems. The rates per minute for the consumer are much lower with CDMA systems. (I have personally confirmed this by picking up pricing info. brochures for both BellSouth Mobility (non-CDMA) and Sprint PCS, both in the SAME Radio Shack store). Pretty-colored handset covers will not solve the technological and economic inferiority of non-CDMA systems. Jon.
