This is not a smartphone. This way I can even say that my old Viewty is a smartphone. Or LG Cookie, or even LG KS360. Those aren't smartphones.

The oldest smartphone I used is HTC Universal 64, Windows Mobile 5, and the best smartphone experience for those years.

The original iPhone of 2007 wasn't a smartphone, even now it's debatable.

It revolutionized phone industry. I still remember NOKIA executives scared sheeetless when it came out. Even they knew that everything will be touchscreen.....it revolutionized everything...everything now has conformed to iphone model, even packaging! I remember NOKIA changing to iphone packaging too!

Nope boys, there is a simple reason why iphone is numero UNO. And everyone is imitating. Including JOlla, including NOKIA....poor NOKI, they tried to turn Symbian into touchscreen...N8....perhaps even a bigger craaaap than N9....told us they cant code. NOKIA is just not a software company.

You do know NOKIA were already making touchscreen devices don't you? A touchscreen wasn't some amazing revelation to them. Symbian had touch support baked in since it was called Epoch32 and run on Psion PDAs.

NOKIA's real problem was clunky old hardware, too low-powered and ugly to do their excellent software justice. It was only the remarkable efficiency of their software that enabled it to run on such modest hardware, slothful operating systems like iOS and Windows Phone certainly wouldn't have been able too.

Now NOKIA are doing much better hardware but they've partnered with a company with a world wide reputation for unstable, insecure software.

Sure they did. Touchscreen was nothing knew, nor did Apple invent anything fundamental. But they packaged everything so well, so smooth, so tied together and so user friendly. That IS innovation. Now tell me what did Harmattan package well? NOTHING. Buggy and frustrating experience. If Jolla gets 0.0000001% of the market, i.e., sell few hundred phones to few dreamy, ex-Maemo fanboys.......they will be lucky.

There's no doubt Apple made a very slick feature phone and marketed it very well, if you want to call that 'innovation' knock yourself out, no one can touch you for it.
