The issue is simply that it's not good enough, for such an expensive phone that's supposed to have all these great features. I completely understand where the reviewer is going with the T68 comparison. A grid array of colourful icons, a directional controller to select them, options buried in submenus and lists to be scrolled through - you don't know if I'm talking about the T68's UI or the W995, do you? The thing is, on the T68 that interface was simple and worked pretty well because the phone's features were relatively simple - no music, no video, no camera, no java apps or games. If you're paying $600 or whatever this phone costs in the rest of the world, in order to have access to all those features and more that you expect from a higher-end brand new phone, you deserve a better interface and better user experience that makes everything in the W995 as easy to use as a T68 was, and you just don't get that.

Never a truer word. People will laugh at this, but I believe Nokia is going to be in serious trouble soon.

I get confused when they compare smartphones and dumpphones. Really, what is lacking in W995 that smartphones have other than say nice email client that supports HTML? Not all smartphones OS support active standby screens. At least in case of SE phones there is a app that can show calendar events on standby screen.

The gizmodo review was BS. It was just a way of promoting the iphone. Imagine clicking a picture with a 2mp iphone cam and with an 8mp w995 cam and displaying the pic in 600x400 pixels.
