Take a look at some of the N95 vs iPhone spoofs on youtube.

It finds the cheapest gas stations in your neighbourhood. Here I'll show you! * iPhone does nothing. Moko: Sow, can you show it to me or not? iPhone: Wait, be patient, I'm loading the app.... *pause again. iPhone: Damnit, lost my connection!
Somehow I also think most people won't know what "Ajax" is, except for the football club or anything else other than what you mean ;-) On 7/1/07, Nick Johnson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
