Not bad. It's probably one of the best choices, but not the only choice, no. Many comparisons are, in fact, possible. Whether you like it or not, it's possible. It's best to keep your mind open to such possibilities instead of dismissing them, if you're ever to notice them at all.

I, like others here have mentioned, doubt they're doing this to do much more than just clear out inventory in preparation of the newest device to replace it soon. Otherwise, maybe Nokia is just sick of the whole thing and going back to Symbian phones.
