At the Motorola meeting in Chicago earlier this week, they threw a very interesting slide up on the wall. If you take it seriously (click for a bigger view), Motorola has a pretty dim view of some of their major competitors. For instance, in their view "S" needs to work on sound quality, "N" and "L"'s displays are clearly lacking, and "L" has a long way to go with their feature set. Still, I think Moto's being a little mischevious here (they often are.) It would be easy to assume "S" is, say, Samsung, "N" is naturally Nokia and "L" looks like LG. But notice that "N" rules on thinness. Thinness has never been a strength of Nokia's. Could "N" be Samsung, maker of the thinnest phones in the world? Could "S", triumphing in feature set and perceived quality, be super-smartphone-makers Nokia? Or should there be three new letters up here - "F", "U" and "D?" Discuss.
