Wheres the upgrade to Opera Mini and Flash Lite when u need it tho - BLUEBOY
Actually if it's anything like Zune it wont come with Communist control of our music...will be a good alternate to the paper weight iphone. Let's face it. The iPhone doesn't do shit.

I was getting so excited, until I read the second to last word of the article. :( What, no stand-alone GPS?

Seems to me like it has every mini-app one could want (and lots of mini-apps that no one wants).
