Yeah, I think Nokia is the same, although I did hear that a Nokia NextG was
due for February.
Why don't you see a point? Australia's a pretty small market, but I think
20M people is a decent target for sales. Especially as the NextG is the
choice du jour. But, I don't know how much is involved with R&D for Sony.
