Actually, N-Gage QD is selling very well indeed in India and China, and to a lesser extent in some other markets. Marketing etc. efforts in some other markets are on hold.

Having said that, I have the QD and still love playing many games. There really are awesome games on it and there still is NO competition whatsoever when it comes to picking the best and most ergonomic gamingPHONE.

[carcomptoy]

But imo it's horrible as a phone (speaking from first-hand experience)...I hate the ergonomics phone-wise. Impossible to use one-handed! Plus the fact that I have the original, so I can't hold it against my shoulder for when I have a call. Definitely has a nice speaker though:rolleyes:

[Viipottaja]

Obviously it is a compromise but my QD is ok to use as a phone too.

[carcomptoy]

You have no problems with the inability to fully use it one-handedly?

[Viipottaja]

I said its ok, not perfect in phone mode. :) Given the great gaming ergonomics, it is understandable.

the sales of the qd in india would be because camera cell phones are banned in colleges...and the qd mite the best phone without a camera...

[carcomptoy]

They're banned in colleges??:eek:
