Why the Nokia 5800 is good news for the iPhone

“Let me get this little bugbear out of the way first. The 5800 is no iPhone killer, because there is no “iPhone killer”.

This is a misnomer, as there is no “winner” and no finish line. The idea of the uber-device is a gadget fan’s dream that will not be fulfilled until the release of the SuperOmniBrain. Even then, SuperOmniBrain v2 will be right around the corner.” Read more here:
