Video: Beautifully Different Nokia Lumia 900 for AT&T. Coming soon

| March 23, 2012 | 20 Replies

  Very quickly following the Nokia UK Lumia 800 advert sporting the theme, Beautifully Different, here’s another for the Nokia Lumia 900 coming to AT&T soon. I don’t think I’ve seen this before (then again, I do normally ignore the ads unless they look new to me). The music has changed from the upbeat TEED [...]

Ever since We first got hint that Carla was being tested internally on Nokia’s developers Bug report I’ve made it my business to pop in every now and then to check on things; but then the 808 happened and everyone assumed that Belle FP1 was codename for Carla in disguise; but today I popped into the developers site for a bit of site seeing (even [...]

I haven’t shown posts about regional Nokia Lumia adverts in a long while as they’ve all been pretty much the same (edited slightly perhaps for regional variations) Here’s a new advert for the Nokia Lumia 800 in the UK. There’s something weird about the audio. It’s like they spliced two separate recordings into one, and [...]

Ah, so much hubbub about getting Angry Birds Space for Nokia today huh. http://mynokiablog.com/2012/03/23/angry-birds-space-not-coming-to-wp/ The last news we have on it say it’s coming to Nokia Lumia. http://mynokiablog.com/2012/03/23/to-be-or-not-to-be-wp-angry-birds-space/ No news yet for N9 version.

Akhil emailed us these images earlier this afternoon. The first screenshot above shows the HTML5 score of Nokia Browser on the PR1.1 PureView. BTW, has it always said ‘series60 x.x’? Note 5.4 Anyway the second image shows a higher score (242), Belle FP2 with S60 5.5.  Hmm s60. Name makes me cringe. Cheers Akhil for [...]

I’m sure you’ve all heard of the Smoked By Windows Phone challenge by now; if not it’s basically a challenge run by BenThePcGuy where he challenges any other Smartphone OS user to complete a task faster than he does it on his WP (His current weapon of choice is the Lumia 800). Currently WPs are winning 90% of [...]

To be or not to be? WP Angry Birds Space…

Why do people say things that can be confusing, negative or misunderstood? I remember reading Engadget’s CE-Oh No He Didn’t articles where they would tell of quotes from company leaders or influential people saying things that would make you say “I can’t believe they said that!!!” Their quotes would usually be a quick blurb that [...]

Here’s a demo of Let’s Golf 2 on the Nokia Lumia 800. This is a popular cross platform Golf Game that looks great and has some fun game play. It has been on the market place for a while and I thought after showing Fable: Coin Golf, I’d actually show an actual Golf Game. What [...]

Nokia trapped together 18 Nokia Lumia 800s around a trampoline at Burton Snowboard’s European Open event. Professional snowboarders were then invited to show off some tricks which then the Nokia Lumia 800 would capture a video of their tricks after the event.  I’m not quite sure they fixed to the focus issue here. I’m guessing [...]

We’ve heard of the April 8th/9th release date for the Lumia 900 from At&t- but what’s even more interesting is how hard Nokia are pushing At&t to make the Lumia 900 it’s Flagship Device (not Nokias flagship; but At&t’s); according to WPCenteral Nokia are arranging a deal with At&t to get all of their desk [...]

| March 23, 2012 | 97 Replies

In an interesting turn of events Rovio has gone on record stating that they have no plans to bring Angry Birds Space to WP anytime soon- Which sounds pretty retarded to me; if you’re the top selling game on a platform why not capitalize on it? I’m sure the developing costs can’t be THAT outrageous. We’re the [...]
