It was only a few weeks ago that Ovi Store passed 7 million. That was just after passing a recent 6.5M milestone too. Actually the […]

N9 confirmed for Kazakhstan – gets massive billboard.

In July, a retailer in Kazakstan called Technodom said Nokia N9 was coming to them. We weren’t too sure of the reliability of this site, but Alexa did rank it 128 in Kazakhstan. http://technodom.kz/actions/discount/69669/ Now this billboard appears again, in Kazakstan showing, guess what?

Nokia on it’s comparison between N9 and N950 told us that the N9 had BT4.0. That of course was not consistent on their specs page which led to the likes of Eldar bashing the N9 for having only an old BT2.X (amongst other things like an ‘average’ screen, haha, average.
