*squeeeeeee* Pretentious Art Deco phones!

[fluffymark]

Nokia are going to release a pretentious new range of Art Deco phones very soon. Described on their website as:

• sleek object of beauty
  
• compelling as the night
  
• exudes mystery and excitement
  
• like a flame in the darkness
  
• crafted for glamour
  
• bold art deco elegance
  
• exquisite form and dramatic colours
  
• sleekly flamboyant

*shinyshinyshinyshinysqueeeeeeeeee*

I so want one.

Sounds like you have a big grudge against Nokia. Surely not all their recent phones are unstable? (spot the optimist here!) ... which of their phones was it that really made you despair?

And I was mistaken in remembering the make of my old phone, it was in a 6210, but thats similar to the 8210.

Or I could ask at my office, we have lots of shiny new Nokias floating around there, and I'd assumed they only went wrong when we put bug-ridden software on them ourselves.

Still want a pretty phone. I probably wouldn't use it much anyway. :)

A grudge? Moi?

It's not so much the bad software - hell, I write more bugs than they do - it's the failure to release a working firmware update. Or even , apparently, to try. Which implies a complete and total disdain for the customer.

Right now, Nokia appears to be driven by an unholy alliance of marketing twerps and feature-fetishist propellerheads. The poor sods who have to write, test, and QA the software appear to have no influence within the company whatsoever.
