I agree that the settlement is complete bs in terms of figures. However, don't forget that Sony and other record labels are more cautious about forcing DRM down consumer's throats, and I think it's likely that this rootkit has a lot to do with it. If this ruling means that Amazon can start selling DRM free music under a subscription model (and probably iTunes as well - who knows, Apple might even provide a legal de-DRM tool for existing music you bought), then I think the fact that 'we won the DRM war' should be seen as a good settlement as well.

But I guess we'll have to wait and see what the labels decide.

The N93 (and all the other N-Series phones for that matter) run Symbian OS (with the S60 UI). Currently Symbian OS outsells Windows Mobile by about a factor of 10 worldwide (note: in the US market it has a smaller presence, but pretty much everywhere else it dominates).

Even normal phones can record video clips, so that is nothing special in itself. The *new* thing about the N93 is that it is the first phone to record 640x480 @ 30fps - most current phones do a much lower res and rarely more than 15fps.
