Out of the box would I tend to agree. As a *POSSIBLE* excuse for them I
can tell you that it appears (from our discussions in a project) to be
no big deal to Nokia to preload a few extra apps with a certain model in
a specific market, so perhaps the idea is the have a few i-mode tailored
Symbian apps in there? (There are for instance homebrewed ringtone
converters out there.)
As a side: There is an odd bug in the 7650 for the Swedish market: If
run with English menues it does not handle daylight savings time with
automatic time update - but it works fine when you switch to Swedish
menues... Didn't go through enough beta testing ;-)
