No, I'm not going to drop my source in it! But here's the exact text of the unofficial release from a very embarrassed Microsoftie:

"Portugal's largest mobile operator, TMN, will distribute the Smartphone nationally through its retailers, and by Galp Energia, Portugual's leading oil and gas company's 24 million convenience stores, petrol stations and retailers this summer."

Poor boy; he'd "corrected" a typing "error" in the original. The original said:

"Portugal's largest mobile operator, TMN, will distribute the Smartphone nationally through its retailers, and by Galp Energia, Portugual's leading oil and gas company's M24 convenience stores, petrol stations and retailers this summer."

Yes; the chain is called M24 - catchy, huh? - and someone was working too late at the office...

It happens to all of us!

If this doesn't frighten the cosy cartel of mobile phone makers, it can only be because they are already terrified of the shape of Microsoft looming in their rear-view mirrors.

But who knew AEG was making a SmartPhone?
