After launching the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic on Feb. 25 as a potential challenger to the Apple iPhone, Nokia halts U.S. sales of its touch-screen smartphone only five days later after unlucky buyers begin reporting connectivity problems with AT&T's 3G network.

So much for the game plan.

Apparantly you can still get the European model.

I thought 3G was unimportant in America going by all the whining complaints about data bundles I've read on this site and others, it still has wifi.

It goes well with the million or more 5800's with faulty earpiece speakers manufactured before Feb 26.

The camera also is not living up to the usual standards in spite of the Carl Zeiss lens.

Oh well, it's got Nokia printed on it, the sheep will buy them in droves.
