The Nokia N-Gage - 0.4M sold First sales figures for the Nokia N-Gage have been released, and they seem quite impressive indeed. According to Nokia, 400.000 units have already been sold, which can be considered a good result for a product first of its kind. The N-Gage has been very visible at least in Scandinavia, were demo booths can be seen in markets and stores.
One key factor is now how well the games are selling. Content producers are likely to lose interest at some point if the N-Gage platform doesn't generate software sales as well. Are people just buying a cool phone, since N-Gage is relatively cheap for its features, or are the customers interested in it as gaming platform. One interesting factor is that will there be a method for copying N-Gage games and what kind of an Internet scene can it generate?

CHeck out the Zodiac by tapwave its 100X better. But I dont think you can make a call on the Zodiac... lol Anyways hand held gaming and cell phones dont mix. I hate when I'm playing a game and my phone rings and if it was both in the same packae I would go nuts plus you are taking away from your cell phone battery life. how much does Battery's for it cost?
