Nokia recommendation service … not taking off since everyone steals music, and who do we trust to recommend our music to us anyway? Our friends, or services like last.fm and Pandora.

Widsets: Not taking off because mobile internet fees in America, and most parts of the world are huge. After playing around with it on my E61 I frankly don’t like the UI and am having sync issues. Too much bling for something that’s meant to be so easy. Opera Mini’s RSS handling + countless other features make that the superior application. I do warn you, I have a strong distaste to the whole widgets theory for information consumption.
