Meltemi for Nokia Tablets too? iPad Killer in the works? Magical MeeGo touch?

| March 13, 2012 | 125 Replies

  Whilst it may be heavily beneficial for Lumia to have a similar product in tablet form, Nokia may not rely purely on Windows alone. Do you remember this interview we saw back in November?  The key part here was Elop hinting that Nokia’s tablets may not just be on Microsoft’s platform. http://mynokiablog.com/2011/11/10/elop-interview-swipe-ui-will-live-on-great-progress-with-us-carriers-swipe-tablet/ Elop as [...]

I don’t know why but I and a few of you love Nyan Cat. The annoying little pop tart kitty. You enjoyed it when he was on a basic Nokia MMS.  It’s not a real 3310 on video but cool enough. There is something worryingly mesmerising about that looping tune. http://mynokiablog.com/2011/06/18/video-nokia-nyan-cat-mms-nokia-3120b/ How about the monotone [...]

  2012 is expected to be the year where Nokia rolls Lumia out in volume. Even prior to release  this is what Nokia had maintained, and that the aim of 2011 was to get their first WP out. So Q2/Q3 would be a more appropriate time to assess the new strategy. There are now four [...]

My Dream Nokia #47: Nokia Lumia 1000 PureView Slider concept

| March 13, 2012 | 31 Replies

My Dream Nokia #47 is a Lumia/PureView hybrid, with a slide out QWERTY. It looks a tad chubby though you’d expect that given that there’s PureView AND slide out keyboard. The face is lumia but with white background (matching the white of the border) and the aspect ratio, it looks more like an iPhone no? [...]
