  Got a couple of emails asking to highlight a petition to get WhatsApp on the Nokia N9. I don’t normally pay attention to petitions of any sort but I thought this one’s worth it, hopefully it might give the WhatsApp folks a nudge (despite replying to requests saying there are no plans for N9) […]

Ooh new phone :D. Here’s something apparently for the China Market and called Nokia 801. It’s not the 801 N8 successor, just some Anna variant for TD-HSPA. Oddly at the front there are no buttons. There isn’t even any room for buttons.. Where’s the Symbian menu button though? The camera says 8MP, it has dual flash […]
