Mute button on Nokia E71

September 17th, 2008 · No Comments

I find myself on at least a few conference calls every week and I was always disappointed that the E71, such a business centric device didn’t have a mute button.  Well come to find out it does.  All I needed to do was ask the right people to learn it does.  The right people are […]

The Nokia E71 is blowing my mind

September 16th, 2008 · 3 Comments

I have been using the Nokia E71 NAM for over 2 weeks now (thanks Colin at WOM World) and have been mostly impressed. As a whole I think it’s amazing but there are a few aspects of it that could use some work.
For example, it needs to restart much less often, it also needs […]

Living a mobile life in a last minute world

August 14th, 2008 · 1 Comment

So this morning started like any other morning except when my wife got in the car with my daughter it wouldn’t start. Being suburban living big city Americans the first thing we did was call AAA. They came out and diagnosed the problem as a bad battery (Joe was extremely courteous and helpful) […]

I’m happy to see a monthly plan at Truphone

Truphone just launched 1.5cents to the US and Canada. They are offering a monthly plan of $15/month for 1,000 minutes. […]

Started using skyfire this evening

August 2nd, 2008 · No Comments

I have just started using skyfire, a new mobile web browser, this evening and my first reaction is that it’s really living up to the hype.  Skyfire just started beta testing their first S60 iteration and I’m using it on my Nokia E61i over WiFi.  It loads fast and loads everything I’ve tried already.

A quick note about Nokia Email, E61i, and E71 NAM

August 2nd, 2008 · 1 Comment

It ROCKS. I took out my E61i so I could try out the new Nokia Email. I haven’t given it a play with yet and I must say I love it. It has a funny flaw it that it won’t show me my sent email, but that aside it’s the best email […]

I have been using the N95-4 lately and LOVE it!

August 1st, 2008 · 1 Comment

I am really enjoying this N95-4 more then I ever imagined. It is my first US 3G device and for what it’s worth, it is SOLID. I don’t have to do many restarts unlike other devices in this family and I can multi task like crazy. The slide is solid and the […]
