Say hello to even longer wait times just to argue with a narrowly-trained pseudo-tech who is probably working overnight on coffee, and that’s not counting the extra time to decipher the ‘English’.

Perhaps they really do to concentrate on their core business a bit more.

They have done very poorly with most any product outside their core. Remember their iPod killer? The <a href="http://personafile.com/iPhone-apps.html" rel="nofollow">iPhone</a> continues to enjoy the success it deserves while the other stand still and don't provide a contender. And no that doesn't make me happy, I'd like to see Apple get a run for its money as the consumer will benefit (lower prices, more features, etc.)</p> Apple will win further if Dell takes a try at this.

Surely a Linux smartphone would run circles around a WM6 device and some enterprise GMail variant would probably give Blackberry a good run for the money, especially on a value basis. The thing pundits seem to misunderstand about Android is that it is a smartphone platform and the main market for smartphones is still business.</p> Why couldn’t a Dell G-Phone be an enterprise oriented device?
