This may explain why N9 is supposedly not coming to the US. Apparently, Nokia are exiting their low end and Symbian handsets when their Windows Phones appear in the US. http://allthingsd.com/20110809/exclusive-nokia-to-exit-symbian-low-end-phone-businesses-in-north-america/?mod=socialflow In an interview with Nokia’s US chief, Chris Weber (ex MS too) ““When we launch Windows Phones we will essentially be out of the [...]
Is this a white Nokia N9? Or is that a case? Reader, “D.” commented this in our last N9 post. The girl, if she looks familiar, is the one from Nokia Sweden’s page. The white N9 had been spotted before, on launch day at the N9 design video. Back then it had side buttons in the [...]
On July 1 we looked at some UK retailers, Expansys and Play who have listings for the Nokia N9 for UK sellers. http://mynokiablog.com/2011/07/01/where-to-buy-nokia-n9-in-the-uk/ @UGN999 tweeted us that Mobilefun.co.uk have listed the N9 and have priced it at £519.95 for the 16GB model. Not bad. http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/sim-free-nokia-n9-16gb-black-p30882.htm MobileFun is a reliable online retailer. They’ve given us [...]
Glenn tipped this yesterday but I couldn’t find the direct FCC page that was linked. The Nokia RM-744 or Nokia 701 Helen is the last of the new batch of Symbian handsets to reach FCC approval. How do you guys search for FCC stuff? I have to go through PhoneScoop (and it wasn’t there yesterday) https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/reports/ViewExhibitReport.cfm?mode=Exhibits&RequestTimeout=500&calledFromFrame=N&application_id=300490&fcc_id=’PYARM-774′ [...]

Last month, What’s app was available for download direct from the developers. I don’t know how long it has been there but it’s now at Ovi Store. http://store.ovi.com/content/172049 WhatsApp Messenger is a smartphone messenger available for Nokia, iPhone, Blackberry, and Android phones. WhatsApp uses your 3G or WiFi (when available) to message with friends and [...]
Nokia as you know tries to cater for various price points. Whilst the high end is now in ‘transition’, the mid particularly low s40 focuses on bringing features to those without deep pockets. That’s part of Nokia’s strategy in connecting the Next Billion. Symbian brought a lot of features for not a lot but Android [...]

Nokia Conversations have been doing a series on Nokia App Developers, a recent one being with Sebastian Brannstrom. http://conversations.nokia.com/2011/08/08/appstravaganza-interview-with-sebastian-brannstrom-coverup/ He’s got an app that solves one of the annoying issues on Symbian’s music player – missing album covers. It’s a bit of a waste as this plays a big part in Symbian^3′s album art piece. CoverUp [...]
