a while ago, i published a seemingly dissenting review in that i liked the nokia n-gage. i still think it's a great gaming platform, and also great for things like entertaining your kids when waiting at the doctor's office. mosty i think it's misunderstood. it's not a phone. it's a wireless data device for mobile gaming that has huge potential and will be copied by sony and nintendo in the future. nokia needs to market it differently for sure, but that will come with rev 2.
anyway, if you read some reviews on how it sucked, the reviewer probably tried it once and put it down. perhaps it's a bit of an acquired taste.
as further proof, russell beattie, who i believe first hated it, now covers some of the alternate ways to game with the n-gage and shows there's more there than meets the eye.
