Nokia: 'Sideloading' Will Be Key To iPhone's Success
There has been much criticism about the iPhone's lack of support for 'over the air' iTunes downloads, with many consumers wanting the ability to transfer tracks direct from an iTunes installation on the device.

But according to Nokia's board member Daniel Hesse this process will turn out to make the iPhone successful. Hesse labels the process 'sideloading' - the act of downloading music to computer and then syncing it to a smartphone.

Speaking to The Browser, Hesse said that for transferring music and multimedia files to mobile phones, “sideloading will be absolutely crucial and that "no matter how fast the wireless networks get here, the computer is always faster."

The former AT&T Wireless exec says he sideloads content to his Nokia smart phone: he can download music purchases faster using his wired broadband connection, and he likes using his computer to manage his playlists, according to the report.
