‘Ovi Music Player’ becomes ‘Nokia Music Player’

  I’m not sure how many of you actually use Nokia/Ovi music player but personally I use it transfer music to my phone as well as Metadeta collection for tracks. Overall it’s a ‘decent’ app in my opinion even though it does take ages to start-up, Nokia has pushed out a new update to version 2.5.11021 which [...]

If you head over to http://store.nokia.com/ you’ll find that there’s been a couple changes to the layout, mainly moving all the categories to left side of the screen rather than having them cluttered up below the featured app. This new design does make it much simpler to navigate through the site and gives it a more professional look. However I [...]

Another advantage of the Nokia-Microsoft deal about 8 months back promised to bring more “Microsoft related support” to the current and future lines of Symbian phones. The first Symbian related advantage from this deal comes in the form of Microsoft Office apps coming to S^3 devices running Belle (apparently showcased at Nokia World 2011) .

@BenWood from CSS Insight tweeted the image above saying: “Nokia Lumia retail activity starts rolling out in the UK. Phones 4u (Oxford St, London) has full Lumina window display.” At Nokia World, I got really excited that Nokia are taking the store front actively and aggressively.  As Windows Phone is pretty much unknown, it falls behind [...]

Nokia Lumia 800 tops the PhoneHouse sales in France (largest independent mobilephone retailer in Europe)

Here’s a refreshing set of words strung together. Nokia Lumia 800 is selling well! Something that has plagued Windows Phone is that it wasn’t attracting the sales. It was the unknown against the familiar greenbots and iThings. Sales folk didn’t know what it was so certainly consumers won’t be informed any better. It did lack [...]

I thought it might be worth summarising my thoughts into one post and just linking [...]

Right let’s do this. Normally, such a thing would normally deserve their own individual posts, but somehow, merely days from announcement, all the reviews for the Nokia Lumia 800 is out already, beginning with TheVerge as posted yesterday. And doing some more searches, I’m amazed how much more is actually available. If I miss any [...]

I’m having an odd Deja-vu feeling as this seems to be something I might have come across before. Ah well. GSM Arena is reporting that this is at least now official. You can see it in the Nokia Hungary page below included as one of the possible colour choices. http://shop.nokia.hu/288/nokia-n8/szin=bronz-64 Source: blog.gsmarena.com Cheers @KobusNell and [...]
