The memo states that Nokia plans to launch two variants of the N81, one with an 8GB storage capacity and another with 1GB of storage. Orange proposes that an “open and transparent” trial is conducted to evaluate the Nokia music store using the 8GB handset to compare results with the 1GB variant that would only use Orange’s own music download service. “If this proposal is not accepted, we will regrettably be forced to derange this handset,” the memo warned.The memo said it wants to source larges volumes of “the exclusive blue N81” but that if Nokia does not agree to the trial, it will work with other handset makers to fill the gap. Orange has set a deadline of 31 August for Nokia to agree to the trials.
Snippet from the article I mentioned in my previous post about Orange trying to shit on Nokia’s N81 launch because it competes with their music store.
