3G and music the market drivers in 2005
Nokia's spin on music:
""Music is the next big thing in mobile multimedia," Vanjoki said. "We see 2005 as the year when music really goes mobile. Already in 2004, we sold 10 million phones with integrated music players. This year, more than half of our new Nokia phone models are expected to have music functionality," he said."
As there is no real cost of adding music support (except need for more memory, which of course should be upgradable via a memory slot) I figure only the cheapest models will not have music capability.
