Nokia falls short -- N-Gage destined to get squashed fast

"The $299 N-Gage (www.n-gage.com), launching Tuesday, is a hopeless muddle -- lacking in quality games, too confusing in regards to service plans, too expensive and crippled by a series of stunningly bad design decisions. I'm usually reluctant to stick my neck out with predictions on how a product will perform in the marketplace, but not this time: I predict the N-Gage will get squashed faster than a newbie going head-to-head with a video game veteran in NCAA Football 2004," says Mike Langberg of the Mercury News.
