The point of this blog post was to let people know what others are saying about the device. At the end of the day I encourage people to do what you did, go to a store and play with the device itself before purchasing it.

When I tested it at the store, the wheel felt unresponsive, undersized, cluttered with other buttons near it and generally utterly useless for gaming purposes - so much so that I can't even imagine anyone actually playing anything with this device. Even navigating the menus with it was hard, let alone something that requires accurate split-second moves. A gaming phone should have a directional controller as robust as actual handheld consoles do, yet Nokia's effort is in no way comparable to Nintendo DS or Gameboy Advance.
