Nokia is promising more influence in Windows Phone Apollo
Its fair to say that most pundits bloggers and journalists (us included) where pretty impressed with Nokia first offerings running Windows Phone but came away a little disappointed with the news that there aren’t that many Nokia exclusives apart from Nokia Drive, Nokia Music and an ESPN app (hardly anything to shout about).

Windows Phone Mango apps showed off in style
There have been a ton of promo videos showing off Mango but this one caught our eyes and in our opinion shows off Windows Phone in a much better way in terms of the message Microsoft and eventually Nokia are trying to tell people. The message “put people first” is a great message. Overall a [...]

Winners and Losers of the Nokia-Microsoft “alliance”
So a lot has been made about this ‘alliance” (I hate that word) a lot of negative comments mainly from the Nokia enthusiasts side and also employees and developers that work on Symbian.

Leaked image of Nokia branded MeeGo device ???
