According to AllThingsDigital, MorganStanley have put together some expected sales for 2012. Interestingly they also estimate Nokia’s 2011 performance (well Q4 2011). Let’s glean what we can from here. Total Symbian and Windows Phone sales for 2011 for Nokia account 77M. What about MeeGo/N9? Just with Symbian and Windows Phone, that could make 19.3M [...]
And so it begins: Nokia’s operation Rolling Thunder gets underway for real, on the streets with the Lumia 710 now available to customers at T-Mobile stores and online. I went to have a look at how it is presented in one of the stores here in Washington, DC. As you can see from the pictures [...]
It was late November when we last saw some PR1.2 screenshots. Here are some more! I think they got the firmware update from Navifirm? (which some folks have said has some new N8 updates? I’ve not looked into that as I’m supposed to be revising and don’t have time to check around. I really [...]
Here’s the TED app for the Nokia Lumia. You may have seen these videos on YouTube, they’re the Technology, Education and Design talks that I think are pretty great to watch and listen to either from topics you’re interested in or other things that are completely new. The design is simply Metro and you can [...]
http://www.viddler.com/explore/engadget/videos/3768/ In the link above you can find Engadgets interview with Stephen Elop after CES, he talks about how the 900s camera is different than that of the 800 and N9, although he never confirms that it’s not the same one (Afraid of a bad rep?). They also ask about the possiblity of seeing new [...]
Here’s an interesting video with Stephen Elop and Josh Topolsky from The Verge. The usual stuff but points of interest: Nokia numbering system. When Nokia talked about it it seemed it would stay between 1-9. Josh jokes about the 1000. Elop says he doesn’t know how high it could go, i.e. there’s no limit. Nokia Lumia [...]
This is one of the upcoming games for Nokia Lumia that Nokia helped bring to the Windows platform, it is also coming (as some wished in the comments) to Symbian^3. This is ‘The Game of Life HD’. It 6MB I wasn’t sure if this was some 2D version but the iPhone one is only 15mb. [...]
I have actually got two mods to share with you today, both relating to the browser. The first alters a few settings that change the default action when opening a file. (This applies to the browser, as the browser “opens” files not necessarily saving them. Apparently the file manager saves them.) I have altered the [...]
We got contacted by the developer of this Nokia N9 app called Manga Avatar, where you can create Avatars in a sort of Manga Style animation. The app looks familiar as it’s the same developer as the Qt Geeky Avatar for Symbian. Price: Free Link: http://store.ovi.com/content/236553 Developer Blurb: Do you like anime? Draw your friends with [...]
We have seen a few China Clones of the Nokia N9. One in particular had Android Buttons and could mimic various OS styles. However the implementation of the hardware buttons looked dreadful. Whilst these Android buttons are still a bucket of yuck, they’re slightly better and overall the clone is a much better job as [...]
Hey this is a pretty cool N9 Hack. For fans of Michael’s N9Hacks series, hope you don’t mind me placing this cool one in where you can change the grid of the N9. I think we’ve seen before where they’ve made the N9 icons larger but not to the point where the grid pattern [...]
Looking around the web there has actually been a surprisingly positive reaction to the new Nokia Lumia 900 despite the dismay of some ‘fans’ of it not immediately being the front runner on paper. But let’s not forget that what Nokia has put together no not remarkably different from the 800, completes it and brings [...]
I have been talking to people a lot about Windows Phone and what they think about what Windows Phone is is shocking me at times. Many people confuse that the name of the OS ‘Windows Phone’ with phone that runs Windows (desktop version), thinking it’s buggy and full of viruses. For that matter one should [...]
We posted earlier about EA bringing some top EA games for Nokia Lumia. Here’s a video of some of what’s coming. We’ll certainly be taking a look at some of them in our Lumiappaday series. ZOMG game of Life! Utterly excellent game when we end up waiting and the lectures are cancelled :S. Hope it [...]
Viber are apparently working on a version of their App for Nokia. It’s not Windows Phone as they’d say ‘for Windows Phone’ but Nokia, and that might be Qt, which would either be for Symbian/MeeGo-Harmattan N9 or both. In reply to Robert Swain who asked: @ViberSupport Are there any plans for Viber on the Nokia N9? [...]
Back in November we shared with you a petition to get whatsapp on the Nokia N9, MeeG0-Harmattan platform. Whilst N9 is the Qt Hero device WhatsApp is not in Qt so it isn’t as easy a job to make Symbian version. http://www.change.org/petitions/whatsapp-inc-develop-a-nokia-n9-meego-harmattan-version-of-whatsapp-messenger From 200 or so signatures to 2500, you guys voted your support. Whilst [...]

Here’s the next batch of Nokia Lumia 900 hands on videos. Here’s the first one: http://mynokiablog.com/2012/01/10/video-collection-nokia-lumia-900-hands-on-videos-from-ces/ I wanted to highlight something in the first video that in the first video, check out how due to the Carl Zeiss branding, people are instantly assuming the camera in the 900 is superior thanks of course to the [...]
