I’m getting frustrated with mobile these days.  I am really tired of the popular formats of phones and nothing is really changing.  I know touchscreen only handsets are popular but I’m personally bored to bits of seeing them everywhere.  Everyone and their mother has a touchscreen [...]

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 [...]

Back to the Nokia E75 I go

September 17th, 2009 · 5 Comments

So as all of my readers know I’m a hard core Nokia E71 fanboy.  I’ve been infatuated with the E71 since I first heard about it roughly 2 years ago.  Now I’m impatiently waiting for the much anticipated E72 but I decided to whip out the E75 I was graciously lent for review and have [...]

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 [...]

E72 is my next phone

August 3rd, 2009 · 6 Comments

I haven’t written about the E72 on the blog yet because I was waiting for some reviews to come in and now one has, Eldar from Mobile-Review posted his thoughts and I only found it thanks to Stefan at IntoMobile.  Now I’m ready to talk.
The E72 is going to rock and is stepping up Nokias [...]

August 2nd, 2009 · 4 Comments

So as many of my readers know emoze is a client of mine and I tend to write about them a great deal.  We are going to be launching an emoze blog very soon so there will be a great deal less posting about emoze on here.  This post is all about emoze but it’s [...]

Apps I loaded on E71

July 13th, 2009 · 3 Comments

I left on vacation a few days back, as I write this I’m in the passenger seat of a giant 12 passenger Ford F350 van.  This thing is a monster but I like it. I’ve been preparing my electronic gear bag (I like to call it my toy bag) and I never know exactly what [...]

AT&T has a secret plan that most people don’t know about and are never offered publicly as far as I know.  Most people pay $15/month for unlimited internet with a dumb phone and $30/month for internet with a smart phone like a Nokia E71x or [...]
