New Nokia Annoucements?

http://www.nokia.com/press/goplay

So what does everybody think?

New Mobiles - I like the look of the new N81, I'm due an upgrade in Jan 2008
so this might be what I'll be look for as a replacement to my memory hungry
N73.
Nokia Music Store - Oh just what I need, I'll stop using torrents now???
N-Gage - N-gage application running games on all S60 3rd Edition mobiles. I
think it might struggle on the N73, but with the newer mobiles it might work
well. Some of the games listened look like most of the ones my daughter has
for her GBA? i.e. SIMS2, Dogz, etc..

Ooh, I like the look of the N81...

But er, one thing continually pisses me off about Nokia.

Why is it so hard to convert a movie to play on a Nokia? And why is
there no decent video playback application?

All I want is to convert a video using a fastish high quality program
and play it back with no fuss. But no. Can't even play back DivX can it!

It's a nice phone but my N73 has a 3.2 Megapixel camera and the one on this
phone is only 2Megpixels.
