I disagree strongly with the second half of his article. Just because he's got fed up with two-handed input (a la UIQ) doesn't mean that 30 million Series 60 smartphones are worth overlooking.

Nokia has finally got Series 60 more or less perfect with the 6630, 6680, etc. Combining one-handed use with convergence of music, imaging, messaging, etc.
