Sorry if this has been mentioned before guys but i am reall curious how none of the major phone manufacturing companies have yet to present a "mp3-phone" opposed to camera phones.
Yes, i agree that camera-phones are the trend at the moment but i am sure that there is a huge market that would prefer a phone with 20gb, a good mp3 player, and ability to download songs through operators.
Judging from the runaway success of the IPOD, which isnt that bigger than a small to medium sized candybar phone, i would have expected some company to come up with an ipod+phone combo. On the other hand ou could say that mmc and msduo pro cards now reach 1gb so wh equip a phone with 20gb on board, yet i believe that at 350-400 euro, a phone with 65k tft screen (for music video clips?), gprs, 20gb, mp3 and radio, would be a great success story!

20GB, I assume you mean a hard drive then, well that sure would suck a hell of alot of power, but I was told that, in Japan the first lot of Smartphones with HDs will be coming out later this year.

Thinking about it, a phone with a 20gb .mp3 facility would have quite a market, I'm sure.
