The ultimate mobile phone

Here's a Nokia press release:

"Nokia today announces the launch of its ultimate entertainment device – the X6 16GB. The 16GB has all the stunning features of the 32GB..."

Woah. Hang on a moment. The earlier version of the X6 had more memory. So that's not "ultimate" meaning "best", is it?

And I doubt it's Nokia's last-ever entertainment device. So what exactly does "ultimate" mean on this occasion?

Oh sure, it's a good phone. And it's a good price. But "ultimate"?

I think not.
