In some CDMA devices the SIM is not swappable... not easily, anyway.

I didn't see that the booklet had WCDMA so my apologies if my comment was a red herring.

Also sorry for the OT-- didn't realize what thread I was in when I replied to the other post. :o

The other one is a marketing genius, too. Windows: Life without walls. Hell, if there were no walls, there would be no need for windows either.

Linux failed on the laptops because the manufacturers screwed up the software completely. On the eeePC, what little software you got was insecure, and the "package manager" (to use the term loosely) was horrible. The GUI was simple alright, but also buggy.

Had they shipped Debian stable with the Maemo interface and KDE apps, things would be looking a lot different now.

"Life without walls." That's code for, "Virus, come on in."

I was just watching some Planet Earth last night. Ask an Emperor Penguin how nice life is without walls. Or ask your neighbors.

What a dumb a*s marketing phrase.

Anyone else think that Eldar's threat to post a FAQ was an attempt to extort something (more) from Nokia?

New pic! http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/24/n...ed-press-shot/

Looks like there's a front camera and maybe proximity and ambient sensors.
