How do you make Nokia appreciate the need for Lumi...

As much as I'm loving the new devices Nokia releases I can't help but feel they keeping getting the internal storage wrong on their higher end devices.
An ideal world would offer decent internal memory (16GB minimum/32GB+ preferable) as well as microSD access on all their Lumia linup.  I accept that there woiuld be a trade-off for some designs to try to incorporate this on all the devices, but for those devices that don't have a microSD and you are selling as high-end (92X series) you should provide an absolute minimum of 32GB internal memory. 
The Lumia 925 is a beautiful device, but the 16GB version (which I'm assuming will be the most readily available option compared to the 32GB version)  is woefully lacking for decent internal storage. 
As great as the cloud computing/4G LTE revolution will be, it isn't here yet so you can't sell devices that appear to be intended to have their internal memory extended/supplemented by cloud access, as there's very few countries in the world that have a 4G network up to the task.
Even when cloud access/4G is improved I still would consider it vital to have decent sized local storage as well as high-speed cloud access.  Network access/reliability isn't 100% and so a device that relies on cloud access ends up being as crippled as Google's Chromebook has been since launch having to rely on a tech which isn't there yet.  Sure, gaming and the bulk of your music might make sense to play via the cloud when you can but with such amazing cameras on the devices there needs to be enough internal memory to give the user no worry of using it all up with apps, downloaded music&films for offline viewing, photos and their amazing holiday videos.
Nokia makes a great deal (and quite rightly) that the camera in your pocket should have great imaging capabilities as it's the one you can most quickly reach for.  Their Lumia devices are being positioned as devices suitable for all locations and all situations and so should be able to operate as such - when we go off the beaten track, we should be limited in what our device can do because it can't access the network!
I sincerely ask Nokia not to put out any higher-end Lumias without the following minimum requirements:
1)  16GB+ internal storage with accessible expandable microSD memory.
2)  32GB+ internal storage if no microSD slot available.
3)  16GB+ internal storage with built in inaccessible microSD memory (32GB+ minimum) if the phone's design makes external microSD impractical/undesirable

Don’t think there’s any need to argue anything here I believe another_rob has a point I purchase a Lumia 800 on release date knowing it only had 16gb of memory with no way to expand it, but I thought the 25gb of cloud would be good enough to compensate for lack of memory in the phone it self. Well what a fool was I, I don’t live out in the sticks, I live in a medium size town just outside one of the UKs main cities and even here there are parts of the town that you can loose phone connection let alone a good data connection, so I learned very quickly that the cloud option is at best poor and worst pointless for me.
I can see that yes cloud will get better with 4G and is only going to get better over time but it is to soon to make the phone so dependant on it, just a small point MS has now taken back 18gb of that cloud storage any way, didn’t bother me as I’ve not used it over the last twelve months now any way, also just another point the phone uses some of that 16gb of memory for the OS and other system software so you don’t even get the whole 16gb for your own use, I never looked myself when I first got the phone to see how much the OS used.
 I also have my own nas storage at home which I have access to via the net so I can see and understand the advantages to cloud based back up and file transfer, but after saying that I’m now looking for a different phone partly due to the lack of greater internal  memory storage in the phone. My own Lumia only has 750mb of memory left and that is only because I have had to decide not to copy files to the phone that I used to have on my previous phone Nokia N900.
I know there is going to be cost considerations that Nokia have used to determine what memory to put in the phone so as not to make it to pricey and put people of as the mobile market is so very competitive but why not at lest give the user a couple of options either phones with different memory options or just a card slot, for me my next phone will have at lest 32gb of internal memory and an sd slot so I can have all the files I want full access to anywhere and at any time. So with this in mind I think there is no Nokia that meets this requirement and even if there was I have other problems with the OS on the phone so will not be buying another windows phone, which if a sad day for me as I’ve owned Nokia phones for over 25+ years.
Please this is just my own personal view as was your post and this forum is here for people to post there own views and ask question or ask for assistance and I hope that Nokia read these post and try to put phones out there that we will all be happy to own and use, just for now I will be using someone else’s mobile for the next couple of years I guess has I will be taking out another 18 or 24 month contract. No phone manufacture is ever going to make a phone that is perfect for everyone, mission impossible.
I will keep an eye on this forum and other press to see how thing progress with the Lumia range and who knows I may be back with them in a couple of years time so I wish you all well.

    How do you make mobile numbers the default number used in your contacts for sending text?

    Go to your contacts, find the contact that you wish to text, hit 'edit', and move that contact's numbers around until the mobile number is at the top. Arduous I know, but it works. Now when you go to text that person, the mobile number should be the default.

    How do I make my computer the primary for my iPhone 3G? I am able to load music from my iTunes library but unable to delete music or create playlists on the phone from itunes. The computer I set the phone up with (primary) was destroyed.

    There is no "main" or " primary" account.
    Iphone, ipod touch, ipad will sycn with one and only one computer at a time.  Syncing to another will indeed erase the current content from the device and replace with content from the new computer.
    Copy everything from the old computer or your backup copy of the old computer, to the new one.

  • How do you make a picture the background in Pages?

    I have a photo from Google and I want to make it the background of my document on Pages, but I can't figure out how.  How do you do it? Thanks!

    One way is to create a text box. Then you can arrange the image to the back, text to front.
    Another way is to convert from word processing to page layout mode (accessed through File > Convert to Page Layout). The image can then be sent to the back.

  • How do you make use of the 2nd Ethernet port on the Mac Pro?

    My Mac Pro's ethernet port connects it to the local network and the internet.
    Under what circumstances would I make use of the 2nd port?
    Are there any settings I'd have to set up in system preferences to make sure one is used for some things while the other is used for different things?
    I'm asking because we might be making some changes to our network. We have a printer with a Fiery RIP and I'm pretty much the only one who prints to it. I was wondering if we could/should set up a direct, dedicated connection so that network traffic won't bog down print jobs.

    The main use for that port today is to create a subnetwork for Internet Sharing. Software inside the Mac can act as a Router and provides new DHCP Addresses for the subnetwork. In general, the devices on the subnetwork would be inaccessible from anywhere else, due to Network Address Translation.
    If you are concerned about heavy network traffic, consider upgrading your Switches (not Routers) to Gigabit Ethernet speeds and using Jumbo frames. (Routers are not involved in peer-to-peer transfers such as Printing when no Address Translation is involved.)
    If you have an Industrial Router, you can combine the two Ethernet ports into one composite link for faster-than-Gigabit effective speeds, but it requires a special Router not generally available.

  • How do you make console apps the default application for a file type?

    I have a console movie player, mplayer, that I like a lot. I've compiled it from source on my intel core2 macbook pro and it works fine. There is no gui, but to play movie files you open up a terminal and type the command mplayer /path/to/file. I would like mplayer to play a movie file automatically when I double click on the file, but I can't seem to figure out how to do it. I tried setting it in the file info dialogue, but when I go to the path of the binary I want, it is not selected. How can I set a console app as my default application for my file type?

    there is a GUI mplayer for OS X. why don't you use it instead of the command line one?
    if you insist on using the command line mplayer then the only way to do this is to put a GUI wrapper on it. this can be done with automator or apple script for example. but really, why don't you just use the GUI mplayer?

  • How do you make fla file the default document to test the project?

    my default document is the swf file.  help me please.

    You create your flash application in Flash Professional by creating new FLA file and editing it. The output (flash application) of this proces is SWF file. Which is then played by Adobe FlashPlayer.
    When you test your project, the SWF file is exported and then opened by flashplayer.
    FLA is your source file and you keep it on your computer for later editing.
    SWF is your actual application and you deploy (copy) it on the server or wherever you intend to deploy your application.
    If what you're trying to say is that you wish to debug your application, then test it not by pressing Ctrl+Enter, but Shift+Ctrl+Enter.
