Nokia reportedly buying Siemen’s stake in NSN for 2.6 billion USD

| June 30, 2013 | 51 Replies

Advertisements   Someone went shopping this weekend. Nokia has apparently agreed to buy the Siemen’s 50% share of NSN for a reported 2.6 billion USD. How is Nokia going to afford this? With a bridge loan apparently. Perhaps Nokia are seeing more positive future potential in NSN. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-06-30/nokia-said-to-agree-to-buy-siemens-stake-in-nsn-networks-venture.html http://www.hs.fi/talous/Nokia+ostaa+Siemensin+osuuden+yhteisest%C3%A4+verkkoyhti%C3%B6st%C3%A4/a1372557521459 It’s an interesting result, given that […]

WP 8.1 Swipe Down Notification List Unblurred – Jokes, its just an app!

| June 30, 2013 | 23 Replies

So we have seen that infamously blurry “leak” of WP 8.1 showing off new notifications. While there are some differences between the two, it does seem a bit too coincidental for my liking. The notification list is almost the same. Clearly, the dev could have implemented the version in the leak, and then changed it in order […]

Carl Zeiss becomes ZEISS, already branded PureView ZEISS on Nokia EOS/Lumia 1020

| June 29, 2013 | 23 Replies

Looks like Carl Zeiss is now just becoming ZEISS in a bid to consolidate brand name and brand communication. Founded by Carl Zeiss, the brand is often simply referred to as Zeiss. To keep things consistent, Carl Zeiss will now be just ZEISS. http://blogs.zeiss.com/photo/en/?p=4150 Janne notes that some of the EOS proto pics mentioned simply […]

Weekend Watch: Samsung Galaxy S4 vs Nokia 3310 – speed test

Keeping with the theme of testing the newest smartphones against the 3310, here’s the SGSIV. It’s just for some light entertainment. It’s certainly making a lof of Sammy fans angry. It’s not actually a done deal that the 3310 always wins btw. I have seen one where it doesn’t. Funnily enough, there aren’t complaints there. […]

Interesting point to note for those who are in possession of an electric rechargeable toothbrush. It appears to be compatible with Nokia’s range of wireless charging accessories. It does not work on the iBrush unless you jailbreak it. Source: Reddit
