Nokia Says N-Gage Sales Strong, Analysts Not Impressed
While some initial reports on N-Gage sales showed positively dismal sales numbers, Nokia has come out with a statement saying that they sold 400,000 N-Gage's in the first two weeks, which they consider a booming success. It certainly beats those initial reports, but many analysts say, it's pretty small on a global scale. Also, if you look at the details of the story, Nokia is counting the devices they've sold to stores - and not how many customers actually purchased, so it might not be particularly accurate.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
