Although the industry is rolling out new handsets with multimedia capabilites, many question if consumers even want such functionality. David Chamberlain, at In-Stat said, "People are not really flocking to phones with new features. They just want to talk on the phone." According to a recent In-Stat survey, there is relatively little interest so far in new phone add-ons, such as video." It's true folks. Most people don't need to watch a 2 hour movie on their cell phone or listen to hours of music on them either. I think the iPhone recently announced is just another egg Motorola has laid. Especially considering its silly limitations such as a 100 song limit and you can't download music over the air. Are these companies just making stuff up as they go or do they really know what we want?
