Firstly, this is not a troll. I really shouldn't have to start with that comment.

I'm actually rather more excited about the Lumia 730. Value for money, not status is a killer feature for me.

It's a bummer they are keeping the base model at 16GB. It's pretty obvious that it's an intentional move to force people up to the 64/128GB models.

I'm actually happy that the base model comes with 16GB if that means a lower price for that model. I don't really need the extra space.

Nexus 5 is all the phone one needs, at half the price.

True unless someone has made years of investments in iTunes-sourced content, then moving over to a cheaper phone with the same feature set is no longer an apples-to-apples comparison. I have a collection that goes back to iTunes' and the iPod's very first days. I'm not terribly keen going through any conversion/repurchasing process.

Only one gig of RAM and base storage still at 16 gigs really annoys me. I may end up with a Moto X and wait for the 6s.

Honest question, what do you use the space for? I used to use mine for music, but now I use Pandora and Spotify.

And also not everyone lives in the US so no Pandora or Spotify.

How is what you're building different from PressureNet ( https://pressurenet.io/ )?

I'm building PressureNet :) (edited my post above to add that)

Nice one! :)

Reminded me of this dialogue from The Social Network:

    Sean Parker: Well, I founded an internet company that 
                 let folks download and share music for free.
    Amy:         Kind of like Napster?
    Sean Parker: Exactly like Napster.
    Amy:         What do you mean?
    Sean Parker: I founded Napster.
    Amy:         Sean Parker founded Napster.
    Sean Parker: Nice to meet you.

Whoa. On Firefox, that page does not look as polished as previous iPhone product pages. Gray image/animation backgrounds, for example. Interesting.

The thing is that at that price it should have come with 32 GB.
