PocketNow are at it again. Apparently they found a video featuring Joe Belfiore, that was made for Nokia, as a way to inform them of the updates that were coming in the Apollo update. I say apparently as every site discussing the video links to PocketNow, but I can’t find it. There is to be […]

Skype For Windows Phone (Private) Beta coming soon?

| February 2, 2012 | 52 Replies

Finally! Reports say that Microsoft is bringing Skype to Windows Phone. It has been expected for some time now, seeing as Microsoft owns the service. Having Skype may see WP as a real competitor in the smartphone race, since it can essentially become the OS that “connects people” due to its already deep integration of […]

Seeing as MyNokiaBlog is powered by WordPress, I thought it would be only fitting to bring a WordPress app to your attention. I was looking at Nokia Conversations and I found this app. ( Also a WP version is on the site. See source for link.) I really like it. It is simply to use, […]

Nokia #Lumia710 on sale today in the UK

According the Nokia UK’s twitter page, the Lumia 710 goes on sale today. This is great news for those people in the UK that want the Windows Phone experience but on a cheaper handset. I personally love the vibrant colours, however, I would go for the black face, just so it adds that wow to […]

A developer told me he received an email earlier today from Nokia, informing him that he can order an N9 that will come with PR 1.2 on it, to test his applications. Of course, we already know devs are using PR 1.2 on their N950s, but with the minor hardware differences, not all developers can […]

Nokia Lumia 800 coming to Australia in March + White confirmed

Nokia Australia have just sent me an email saying the Nokia Lumia 800 will be out through Aussie operators from March. Apparently the phone has received positive feedback here from operators even before any decision was made to bring in down under. (Curious why 900 LTE hasn’t had a mention since a large operator here […]

That’s right folks. We finally have an app to utilise the FFC on our N9’s to take photos. Haven’t tried it as my N9 is out for repair, with the temp. replacement to arrive today, so I don’t know how well it works. It isn’t a free app, costing AUD$2.00 but, if it works as […]

eBuddy XMS for MeeGo and WP7 out of Beta

| January 19, 2012 | 27 Replies

The latest SMS alternative for Nokia Phones, eBuddy XMS has finally graduated out of Beta status. (Surprising since the last version on both N9 and Lumia were quite buggy. Lumia being slightly better.) I can’t seem to find any sort of changelog so I hope this isn’t the same as the last beta release. If […]
