How on Earth are we supposed to stay trim when carrying around the 120 gram Nokia N95? I’m proud to have large quadriceps and calves so hard I can crack walnuts every time I stand on my tippy toes.

Mobile web browser? I’ll stick with my 17 inch laptop thank you very much. Lifting 7 pounds and dragging it around all day keeps my cardiovascular system in check.

MP3 Player? I think I’ll keep my Sony Walkman and a CD binder filled with every Queen and Michael Jackson box set ever released. My latissimus dorsi need to gain a few more inches of muscle.

Digital Camera? There is plenty of room in my pockets for my DSLR and a few lenses. We all know how heavy glass is.

GPS? They have stand alone units with 5 inch touch screens. Weigh at least 2 pounds. That would definitely help me with my wrist curls.

Video? Portable DVD player with 7 inch screen. I won’t settle for less.

Total weight in my pockets: Around 25 pounds.

I’ll take that over a puny 120 gram Nokia N95 any day of the week!

For those of you who haven’t figured it out by now these statements are obviously made in jest. Nokia has just launched a website called "Great Pockets."

The premise is this: What is the most anti-convergence device statement you could make?

Tell me in the comments section below and I’ll send some clothes with massive pockets to the person who can string together the most insane sentence about this topic.

I’ll update you more once I receive my package.

    e90 and n95 cures all!! if you need a laptop with you all the time, the e90 would do fine. if you need anything else the n95 can get the job done.

    i want those pants!!!

    What, all of this on one phone? Not from Nokia! You have to buy their music phone, their business phone, their high-res camera phone, etc.

    I’m going to make a website showing cargo pants for all the Nokia phones I’d have to carry if I wanted all that.

    N800 + N95 all the way. :)
