Did the 3g iphone just kill any hope for success of the M8?

Honestly, at this point i don't care whether the M8 will ever be released.

I just got another M6SL today to replace the one that broke 3 months ago (stupid USB port), and my two phones (Nokia 6234 and SE K310i), of course on different carriers and both on prepaid cards, do their job as phones, while the M6SL does its job at pleasing my ears.

I need the phones for talking, a quick pic or video and a little game when i'm on the subway or bus. I rarely need internet on my phone, but i have internet capabilities on both of them, and they're enough for a peek on something i forgot to check at home.

And if there's one thing i really want from a phone, it's that it must be LOUD. The Nokia 6234 has the loudest and clearest sounding mobile speakers ever made, not even the N95 beats it. In comparison with the iphone speaker it's 3x louder.

If i wanted internet and windoze on a small device, i would buy a PDA not a smartphone. Generally, a device that must be able to do multiple tasks does them worse than one that only has a specific set of things to do.
