Mobile Phones and cars!

I've been talking to a friend couple days ago and he made me having an idea comparing some phone vendors and models to cars. Thanks Lucas :-)

Let's try to make something simple. Remember Nokia 5125.

* No camera
* 35 memory ringtones (you can customize 9!)
* SMS, Vcard supporting
* 100 rows allowed for phonebook
* TDMA
* I fear this display resolution

Nokia 5125 it's a simple phone used to make/receive calls and sms basically. Display resolution isn't cool but it is ok (playing snake). Anyway, it's an old phone completely different of the actual ones.

So would it be a Lada?

* Old
* For transport only
* Usual size internal and external
* Not any comfort

Let's cause a little trouble now.
What about one of most expected mobile - iPhone?


* Touch Screen display (nice res.)
* Usual Size
* Quad-band GSM (and Edge)
* MacOSx
* Wifi, Bluetooth
* It's a Mac! Charm!


iPhone target is to sell about 1 million phones. It is promissed to be launched in USA by Cingular in June this year. Anyway, iPhone has a closed OS (MacOSx) and doesn't run Java applications. It is charm, and have a great display resolution, storage capacity (4 or 8GB) and camera resolution is ok (2MP).

So it would be perhaps... a 206 Peugeot!

* Popular car
* "Sport" design
* It's charm
* Difficult to find parts (as imported car in Brazil)

I'll keep making for more devices... Have fun!
