i say this because web browsing on the symbians phones is horrendous.
nokia should have gotten a special processor made with a simple arm core with another arm v7 core. one for most simple tasks and another for web browsing and such. achieving best battery life while getting great performance.
Omnia HD (i8910), Vivaz and Satio are running on an OMAP 3, just like the N900.

As the 'terminal experiment' in the 70s and 80s proved - there is a good reason why you need a localized hardware: breakthroughs in silicon advance much faster than breakthroughs in telecommunications. There is a reason it failed then, and there is a reason it will fail now - Moore's law simply does not apply to telecommunications.
Bandwidth increases faster than screen resolution.

What services would these be? Seems that most of their "Ovi" services have or are going to be closed down. The only good part is their Maps, but ROI to date has been negative.

4. Increased hw costs are temporary, have you ignored every piece of news from wp camp?
Whether WP bloat will run on low-end hardware remains to be seen. Remember, for decades what Intel giveth Microsoft taketh away.

Bandwidth does grow but it is not controled by you. ISP will throttle it when they feel like monitor it and lets not forget all the pro "economy" laws that are being pushed everywhere giving mofos like RIAA and MPAA the right to cut you off without needing a court order.

buy lumia and competitor and see. oh, you could also use the internet for researching concerning the issue, but that could be way too complicated for most of the people here nowadays...

The Nokia services I see on the Lumia are navigation, maps, music, and mail. The store is the Microsoft store.

nokia should blame people for being so stupid and don't buy their phone.

it is not too hard to know why lumia did not sell, tiles and metro ms theme is NOT beautiful and boring.

It was more of a rhetorical question since IMO Nokia have no compelling services. Except for Maps, and only because it can be used offline (except for the miserable N900 version - which to add insult to injury often does not even work online!)

not only because they can be used offline but because unlike all other maps, nokia maps have street numbers for croatia, second is the garmin with much less detail and all others are useable to find a street here at best, so all other maps are CRAP when compared to nokia(which are also free unlike all other at least decent maps)
