Sure, but a high end phone isn't over $800 (isn't that what you were responding to?). iPhone 4 unlocked is $750 on Amazon, Androids are usually in the $600-$700 range for their high end devices. But Nokias are always in the high 800s and into the 900s.
That's a problem Nokia never solved. Even their fairly mundane phones are more expensive (although better built) than most of their competition.
Isn't this just the usual Nokia Europe-like pricing in North America effect? How competitive are the prices in Europe?
Nokia prices are usually very competitive in in the UK at least.
Which currency is that? USD? I see Nokia E7 at $429 unlocked and Nokia N8 at around $379 at amazon.com. I don't see where that high 800s and 900s is coming from, unless you are talking about a different currency.
