| Funny how the Jam loses out to the Nokia 6680 in the 'functionality' and 'cutting edge' categories (maybe because it's not 3G). And to think these two categories are what sets Windows Mobile appart. |

lack of 3G and lack of video calling in Windows Mobile phones is a serious problem and it will be addressed by releasing 3G Windows Mobile phones in October 2005 and later... |

Is lack of 3G and video calling in WM a serious problem or is it not.
Because you make it seem like it's not a serious problem in your other article:
http://msmobiles.com/news.php/4147.html
"In the view of having built-in Wi-Fi, lack of support for UMTS is not critical, particularly as latest tests by mobile phone press proved, Wi-Fi is more important for end users than 3G (like UMTS). Particularly in Europe where there are no flat rate tariffs for 3G/UMTS and end users are scared to use 3G in order not to pay big ammounts of money for mobile Internet traffic, the built-in Wi-Fi (that is available for free in many plces) is much more important than UMTS/3G (that is very expensive in usage). Regarding lack of 3G video calling: many people simply don't like to have this feature in their mobiles phones, because with this feature it is impossible to hide your real physical location - for somebody who is calling you over 3G video call, so lack of video calling in these 2 new Windows Mobile smartphones may be an advantage!" |
