Default "screw the Nano"

Motorola CEO Ed Zander had some harsh words for the nano in a recent interview.

"Screw the nano," said Zander. "What the hell does the nano do? Who listens to 1,000 songs? People are going to want devices that do more than just play music


...right like a phone that actually works! Great job on your continued market share loss to the likes of Nokia, etc.
