Nothing against multiple manufacturers, but 30 models per manufacturer??? That can only confuse the buyers. I for one am completely sick of intractable product choices.<p>I can only guess it is some MBA induced pricing scheme that leads to the product multiplicity. It's supposed to fool buyers into choosing the next higher priced model (by adding features one at a time), and make it difficult for them to compare models.<p>If the manufacturer doesn't know how to make one good phone, maybe they should just quit.
