Just as a clarification, if translated from the original article in Swedish, he actually said that Nokia's studies show that "most" users prefer joystick or keyboards - which means that Nokia does see that some users are interested in a touchscreen input.

Actually, this is just a quarterly roundtable that the CDG puts on - they do these regularly with representatives of different companies talking about their vision of technology, it's not a press conference. Someone is connecting dots that aren't really there on this one.

Not T-Mobile's fault that the spectrum isn't compatible - the spectrum being auctioned by the FCC simply isn't the same as what is being used in the rest of the world. Given a choice, I am sure they would love to be able to be on the same frequency in all of their markets.
