Ok, so why not compare this to the thin phone then, Tero? In 4-5 weeks it will be there as well. It is smaller and has better battery performance. It is interesting to note that when you say "advanced features" you mean simple consumer tricks like add another 50 memories and call this some great advancement of the art. Since the phones have 2-4 Megabytes of memory and each phone number entry is like 64 bytes, then potentially, one can dial in 1000's of number entries any time they want. In the QCOM code, I would bet it is just a compile time option. You are trying to make the challenge of building a good RF radio into some marketing ploy. I do not think this is the case at all. I think this is marketings backfill to cover why the engineers can't figure it out and you have been sold this stuff once again. be careful, your credibility is showing....
