That's more of a test of the phones' java VM's than of the phones themselves. In my experience the 6630, 6680 and N70 are very fast, but obviously the java VM must be very bad at doing what the 2d benchmark used tests...
I agree, and Nokia's java implemenations have never been very impressive. Although a little dated, it may have been better to use Futuremarks own symbian benchmark SPMARK04 on the symbian phones.
Good points. Also, these benchmarks only tell you so much. Real world use, in terms of starting applications, finding contacts, rendering an email or web page, and so on, would be far more useful...
