(Groundless) thought on : why no profound ERICY announcement today on new "era of good feelings" between ERICY and QCOM.

ERICY knows NOK.A is scheduled to announce their results tomorrow.

Maybe ERICY wants to "steal some of the thunder" tomorrow from Nokia by announcing then some good stuff (?)

If you don't like it, you could always buy the new Ericsson phone--filled with features, including Tetris and Solitaire! Gee!
Plus, it's GSM!

I think the photo of the Thin Phone makes it appear thicker than it will in the store. The specs I saw on the site with the photo said it was only 4 inches tall (thats only 100 mm.) In other words the phone is tiny all the way around and the mind tends to scale the length around six inches and that would make it look 3/4 inch thick. But if the phone is really only 4 inches long and 1/2 inch thick, that makes it truly diminutive to the point that it would be easily lost, ie. falling between seat cushions, etc.

My first impression was that it was an "ugly duckling" but when it is seen in stores I think it's tiny overall size will make it appear cute. Kinda like the new Beetle.
