You forget that you can buy 2 W800's for the price of 1 N91 (one for your girlfriend and one for yourself, theres a better chance you get laid doing this rather than only get the N91 for yourself)

My only hope now is that SE prices the W8 and the K750 sensibly. 
T230 >> T610 >> Ngage QD >> N73 >> N85 >> Omnia HD >> And countless other review units |

the questions will be:
How many people want a basic phone with an MP3 player?
(W/K is best choice)
How many people want a phone with an MP3 player and around 1GB of memory (hard drive or card)?
(W/K or Nphone)
How many people want the MP3 player and Symbian OS?
(Nphone is best choice)
So, we'd have to know the cost of memory cards when the W/K's are released. And the interest in the Symbian OS - I don't know how important that is to most people honestly. |

nseries in theory beats k750i or w8 and it may cost a lot more ( i believe it will) but nokia has more market share than se meaning they can create a fuss amoung all millions of nokia users introducing ´the´ mp3 phone. w8 will not be able to compete with n91 unless se puts it on the market way earlier trying to get attention for w8 and the company which ´ll have to come up soon with a hd music phone. w8´d compete wth n90 and could have a bigger number of sales. As for k750, unless is priced lower, n70 will certainly win the match.
They r dfferent types of phones ( smartphone and not -smart.) but they r all adressed to fullfill multimedia needs and desires, meaning everyone can get them. The only concern´s the price, n91 will certainly be expensive and maybe to the point of costing more than 20/40gb ipod and in that case it wont be that sucssesfull at all, people wanting a mp3 player phone will go for w8 and n that case w8 would sell more. ( if se doesnt come up with a hd phone till then)
im not sayng nokia ´s better then se but it dominates the market so its natural that new releases and even new techs comes from them first. |

N91 is Q4 and W800 I believe is somewhere around Q3.
People suggesting N91 will be double the W800 is hilarious, because the W800 cant be below the S700s starting price of 700 Dollars, assuming the N91 will be going for 1400 Dollars is absurd.

i also belive w8´s price ´ll be lower then s700 when this came out. Another phone similar to s7 but wth 2mp cam and other features will surely be released and will cost about the same as s7 when it was launched |

W800 wont be anywhere near 700 USD
K750 is allready priced at 360 euros, when W800 is released in Q3 it is expected to be released at 430 euros. Thats approx 550 USD
N91 is expected to be 700-750 euros when released in late Q4, thats approx 900-970 USD, by that time W800 will be max 360 euros which is approx 460 USD.
These are expected numbers I have from reliable sources
These numbers will ofcourse vary depending on country and are ofcourse subject to possible changes depending on how the market reacts.

What is the most faster memory stick pro duo or the hard drive ???

A HD has a rotating disk that need to spin and a moving arm that need to get moved around to find information (it has small engines to do that). A flashdisk (like MS) is addressed almost as an ordinary RAM.
Now, do the math and guess which you think can achieve the highest transfer rate and which requires most power to transfer data.

@slattery i guess msduo is just too expensive in the uk then. I can easily pick up a 1gig one here for 4.5k INR...4gig should cost somewhere between 3 to 4 times so thats 13.5k to 18k. Thats still quite cheaper than k750's release price which is expected to be 22k

First point though, 3G and non-3G phones shouldn't even be compared. Though W800i and N91 have the same goal is an iPod killer, but as for mobile markets goal, they are aimed at different segments. For some reasons, Nokia fans just take this as a time to attack SE, and don't give for anything but just to make SE look as bad this time, while avoiding to think 3G or non-3G. I think this is a shame though.
For Nokia though, this time might seems a good advantage, but Samsung had things instock already to face Nokia. Also releasing N91 at Q4 is a big mistake also. It gives other companies a great chance to bust out a better phone before time. Also a 4GB BUILT-IN HDD is in-sane IMO. Look at Samsung's 4GB, they atleast put in a more Memory Expansion just in case. The N91 users might probably have to put a pillow over the phones just to be sure nothing will happen when it falls. Weight issue, with built-in HDD, which makes it heavier, think about if someone drops with that much weight(My friends 6230 shatters into smithereens by just a small drop, and it weighs alot less than N91), Yikes!
For now I think its pretty not the right time to actually bust out somethings before seeing what other companies have. Motorola have been quiet about its iTunes phone, which is the most scary phone that we should fear because of its quietness. SE also have been quiet, but only codenames that are haunting people right now. If Nokia would just wait next month to release its N-series, I think would definitely benefit them alot more than this time. |
