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

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 [...]

N97 Review, it’s not pretty

July 16th, 2009 · 4 Comments

I want to start off by thanking WOM World once again for sending me the amazing Nokia N97.  It is without a doubt in my mind one of the most technically advanced and good looking mobile phones on the market to date.  It blows many handsets out of the water, chews them up and spits [...]

Quick thoughts on the Nokia N85 after 2 months

March 4th, 2009 · 1 Comment

Okay, so I’ve had the Nokia N85 NAM for about 2 months now and I have thoroughly enjoyed using it for the most part.  The UI speed is amazing.  It connects to the 3G/EDGE and wifi super quick.  I’m using it on AT&T.  The browser is fast.  The build quality is absolutely amazing (though I’m [...]

The N85 I’m missing… and I know where it is.

December 29th, 2008 · 4 Comments

I have a Nokia N85 waiting for me when I return home from vacation in a few weeks, but instead of letting it sit unused while I’m gone I told my Dad to play with it.  I didn’t know if he would or what he would think, he has been using my old E61 for [...]

How should companies handle bloggers?

December 11th, 2008 · 4 Comments

Last week I did a friend a favor and asked a few bloggers if they wanted to use my friends product.  I thought I was being helpful to both the bloggers and my friends company.  Just for the record I consider the bloggers friends to.

October 6th, 2008 · No Comments

So the nice people at Verizon sent me out a Nokia 6205 Dark Knight Edition a few months back for review.  I have been using it a bit and have some thoughts on it.  Some good and some just ok.
Let’s start with the positive.  Keep in mind this is a pretty basic device.  It is [...]
