It is always the same trade-off: more features or less weight. Seams=20
like that the 145 grams range has been accepted for advanced features=20
in Japan addressed to "power-users". 30-40 more grams for a megapixel=20=
quality camera seams to me acceptable...
The interesting thing I am experiencing in EU is that phones that are =20=
heavy and bulky but with advanced features are well accepted by the=20
youngsters and early adopters.
Not tech savvy and older users do not understand the value of having=20
the advanced features so they tend to buy lighter phones with less=20
advanced features.
In this sense Nokia's EU segmentation seams correct as it covers most=20
of the needs...
