I may be late to the game but I think Nokia is doing what Nokia does best, make phones people want and buy.  Isn’t that what it’s all about.  I know Nokia has been playing catchup for a while now and they will continue to [...]

Ovi Store is what it’s called, right?  they why is it only selling apps.  Why isn’t the Ovi Store selling Nokia handsets and accessories?  Nokia clearly has the ability to sell devices online already directly to the consumer so what’s holding them back from selling [...]

I’ve had the N900 for a few weeks now and I have so many different and conflicting feelings about it.  I have been a huge fan of the tablets since I first layed eyes on the N770 many years back.
PROS:
The N900 is a stupendious device
The [...]

I’ve been reading Ewan MacLeod’s blogs for many years now.  I started back when MIR was SMSTextNews and was inspired by Ewan to write my own blog and endevour into the mobile industry.  I went from an observer to someone involved and participating, from hosting [...]

Nokia N900, initial thoughts

October 13th, 2009 · No Comments

I am one lucky guy, I know that, I get to attend the premier events around the world when it comes to mobile technology and I get to play with the latest and greatest devices.  Sometimes devices I’m not at liberty to talk about for months.  So when I was at CTIA last week in [...]

Nokia E72 where are you???

October 5th, 2009 · 2 Comments

So I used the E75 for a while then went back to my trusty E71 and back and forth and back and forth for weeks now.  I love the format of my E71 but like the menu and speed of the E75.  Plus the E75 has US 3G and my E71 doesn’t.
I keep telling myself [...]

Truphone is still the top dog in mVOIP

September 4th, 2009 · 7 Comments

I got to spend some time with Karl Good of Truphone over the past 2 days at the ITExpo and have been reminded how much I like the best mobile VOIP service available today.  Karl gave me an ultra secret briefing, please don’t ask me what we chatted about, I won’t tell you.  No amount [...]

S60 phones should include a restart option

August 26th, 2009 · 10 Comments

I hate to be a complainer about things and I tend to only be the squeaky wheel when it’s necessary.  Well this is really annoying.  I’m a huge fan of Nokia and they are good to me but there’s something about all their phones that drives me bonkers.  Nokia S60 phones are little computers and [...]

Nokia E72 is missing a few things

August 19th, 2009 · 13 Comments

So I just looked up the Nokia E72 on the Nokia website and noticed that it is missing a few things.  First off it won’t have included in the packaging a wrist strap or pouch like the E71 had.  It’s not a huge thing but come on, this is supposed to be a step up [...]

Nokia E72 lets you Leave Your Point & Shoot Camera at Home

August 11th, 2009 · 17 Comments

So I’m very excited about the E72.  It’s going to rock, blah blah blah, I can talk about it for hours.  I think it will change a few things for many people.  It looks like your average QWERTY keyboard phone, it will have good email (I use emoze), it will hopefully include Ovi Contacts (but [...]
