I see wealth envy is alive and everywhere, even in the mobile phone space. Nokia bashers suffer from delusions of grandeur. If you don't like the phone, just go and buy what you like. No one is holding a gun to your head to buy the phone.

However in most cases, I can hazard to say over 90% of the people bashing the phone simply can't afford it, thus by bashing it they feel good about the fact that they are fiancially challenged. This phone has a target market in place who will buy the phone without blinking and freting about specs. Ok!!!

I have criticized most of the nokia phones in past but this one is amazing. But sadly people who can't afford it are saying it ridiculous.

Nokia are doing the same mistake they seem to do all the time to rip customers off and it's working so they have no reason to stop ripping people off as long as there making money for example.

N95 & N95 8gb verson complately identical except for the screen size and the internal memory, what will they bring out next Maybe the Nokia N95 16gb version????

Nokia 8800 and 8800 sorocco Identical again and looks the same from a distance

Nokia Sorocco Arte & Nokia Arte: Again identical but looks 95% identical.

I could go on forever but I won't, Nokia need to bring something out and stop bringing out handsets that are identical to the ones they have already made.

Nokia are boring me unless they bring some sort of killer phone out which does something totally different and then I might change my opinion towards Nokia but can't really see that happening

There is no need of buying this phone at this price.Tho I can I admit that it stylish.I would rather get HTC touch diamond or it rival samsung.

Oh please, the few hundred dollars that separate the luna and the arte are nothing compared to real luxury phones. When your talking on a Gresso or Vertu that costs as much as a car you can go on the Internet brag, but if your flashing one of those you won't need to.

It's like people who think Rolex is an "expensive" watch. Yea... right.
