I'm 'bout ready to ban you if you don't start posting constructive comments. As I've said, I'm an avid Nokia user and fan, but my personal interest in a device or a platform has nothing to do with what the public at large wants to read. Find me a Nokia story *with this level of reader interest* today, and I'll happily post it. Until then, knock it off.
Fernando, I don't hate Apple news. Like I've said before, I know how to ignore an article.
I'm just saying that this proves my point ONCE AGAIN, this minor story got Engadget classic AND Engadget Mobile coverage. When Nokia news happens and it's posted by one of the other Engadget editors, it WILL go on Engadget classic AND Engadget Mobile, but when Chris posts it, it's almost always relegated to Engadget Mobile only (Symbian 9.2 hacked not big enough news for you?!?!?!).
I'm not flaming him here, just posting my observations and you ALL know I'm right.
Compare the number of comments we get on any iPhone story to any Nokia story, apples to apples (no pun intended). I dare you. Then come back and tell me that we aren't catering to the will of the majority.
We aren't fanboys. We don't love Apple any more than we love Nokia. As I've said before, four of my past five phones have been Nokias. But it's pretty obvious that among the bulk of our readership, there's a greater thirst for iPhone minutae than, say, Sony Ericsson or Samsung minutae. Make sense?

Chris, if it's a slow news day, you could always post some, you know... Nokia news?
Oh yeah... That's not how you roll. Meh.
