All nokia devices are mass storage enabled also they sync with any player and have a strong support for windows media player. they don't need that... one big advance they have they sell in a year around 100 millions to 200 millions handset.. with mp3 player enabled. while the ipod have sold that much since it existence.... also nokia OVI doesn't require special software you can buy music from the phone from a pc (any browser )and tranfer it back a forth with a simple drag and drop. no locked to itunes like with apple. “What Nokia is lacking is a point of sale client.
