Nokia is planning to give names to its phones

Say goodbye to numbers because Nokia said today that it's planning to give names to their upcoming phone models, hoping to launch something hot like the RAZR or the Chocolate.
"What you will see coming from us in the future is not just a numbering system, you are going to start to see names that carry a meaning and are important to consumers," Keith Pardy, head of marketing at Nokia, said during a webcast from an Citigroup's investor meeting in New York.
At the beginning of this week Nokia launched a new L'Amour collection and the Nokia 8800 Sirocco Edition. Will these phones be the last ones to contain numbers?

This will suck. Nokia will only look good with numbers. I can't even imagine a name instead of a number.
This sucks big time! Can't imagine a Nokia without a number. They should go for the alphabets along with numbers. Only names would SUCK.
The first model should be the Nokia Suck.
i think it's not a bad idea,but model number should also be there.
thats a bad idea... nokia was very unique with the idea of givin numbers.... thats a suckin statement....
Thats very good that will b very easy or will stay for long time in Minds that good Job BY Nokia

i dont mind it. i think its a good idea. people will know what your talking about when you say a nokia "" vs a nokia "####"but still, a model number should still be included.
