Nokia’s Future Software Updates to Follow Alphabetic Iterations of Gemstones?

Something I noticed about the upcoming “Lumia Amber” update is the fact that it starts with the letter “A”, which as hopefully most 1st graders could tell you, is the  first letter of the alphabet. Potentially this could mean absolutely nothing, but on the other hand it has become customary for software vendors to alphabetically organize their update names (namely Android its names). It seems Nokia are doing the same with their own versions of Microsoft/Windows Phone updates starting with Amber.

Provided they continue using “precious stones” as the category:

ZOMG!!! I just noticed Amber = “A” meaning next update will have to be one of these: gemologyonline.com/blist.htmFingers crossed for Bloodstone

Of course this could also be a possibility:

@d_gui HAHAH OMG!!!! THAT’S GOLD!!!! so we got Aber, Bambi, Candi, Diamond, Essence…. not bad 😀

The real question is how many stones/girls do we have to wait until we get a notification hub and all the other missing features?

@aliqudsi I guess I’ll wait for Zircon for my notification centre and other smartphone basics like custom message tone. MS works soo fast.
