The first category was actually won by a swanky chair. The second category, the N9 wins the coveted ‘yellow pencil’ which are ‘recognised the world over as a symbol [...]
Here is Spotify demoed on the Nokia N9. I recorded this two days ago during my lunch break, just after recording the Lumia version. It wasn’t planned but I thought I needed to give it another go. This means that it was the first time I had used the N9 version. It’s only posted [...]
This bag of awesome was originally produced early last year, according to the forum date, but it just made its way to TMO today. Back when the N900 was new, it was the end all and be all of a hackable phones. Every day it would surprise you with the creativity of its users. Years [...]
Antel, the most important telephony company in Uruguay, is launching a new campaign for the Nokia N9. Felt strange to see such large ads everywhere starring the N9. =D By the way, the phone is U$S700, or 12 x ~U$S 60, with a 24 month U$S29 plan. Shot with my faithful N82 =D (still on service) [...]
As mentioned last time this was supposed to be part of the Video comparison- but the huge difference in quality called for a separate post for the videos – so here it is, a look at The Camera UI/Gallery on both the N9 and the Lumia 800 as well as some photo samples. Apologies in advance as [...]
The Inception Tool for deeper access into the Nokia N9 has apparently been updated? Sorry I can’t look into this right now, just under a lot of work at the moment. http://www.meegoexperts.com/2012/04/inception-v0-1-1-released-works-developer-tools-update-1-480m6/ Thanks Prashant for the tip.
We were contacted by a developer yesterday named Kimble Young who wanted to share his app – a game for Symbian and MeeGo called Word Tiles – an equivalent to Words with Friends. Scrabble if you will. Word Tiles Price: Free Link: http://store.ovi.com/content/257776 He asked if we wanted to know any more so we asked [...]
While browsing through the tip section (and my own N9) it seems that there are multiple updates being pushed out for the N9 in the past two days including: Developer Mode Nokia Link PC connection (Nokia Suite usually gets updated right before pushing out FW updates- so this could be a sign) Real Golf (Not really important [...]
I came across these over the weekend but didn’t get around to posting them (huge backlog of things to write :S) Here’s another collection of videos showing Android on the Nokia N9 with some pretty cool games, the first being Grant Theft Auto 3. I also really like how the touch faux capacitive buttons work, [...]
Quick heads up – in a bit of a rush today… This video shows the App ‘My Moves’ adding a new set of gestures for the Nokia N9. You can see how with a two finger swipe, you can skip track as well as opening apps by gesture. by sKunKeNsTeiN Thanks gen for the tip

Quick heads up- I had planned for this post to be Video + Photos + Camera UI but when I viewed the video samples on my PC and saw the HUGE difference in quality and the Minor rant that this was going to lead to; I though it would be best to split the two.. Anyways. I [...]

Okay down to the gritty nitty stuff, now that we’ve covered the basic Unboxing/setup as well as the basic gestures & multiasking on these two gorgeous devices we can get to where the differences really start to show. As you probably should have guessed from the title today’s video is an in depth look at the different social networking [...]
In the last few weeks, you may have noticed that I have been referring back to an old blogpost where Stephen Fry talked about Nokia, in particular the N97. Stephen Fry is a celebrity particularly famous in the UK for his acting, comedy, presenting, and an all around likeable, intellectual Brit that loves a [...]

Michael tweeted on the weekend that there was an update to FireFox to v11.0.0.2. You can find this update by going into the store and to the My Stuff area and you’ll see FireFox as having an update. I’m not sure what’s going on with my N9 but I can’t seem to update anything. I [...]
Quick heads up guys; as some of you might know I recently got my hands on a N9 and have been trying it for the past couple of weeks or so- for a while I wondered if I should bother reviewing it at all; because it’s been done- the N9 isn’t exactly the newest handset [...]
I skim read an article earlier which seems apparently indicated that Nokia were working on two MeeGo phones. They cite a Nokia ‘industry insider’ for this information. According to an industry insider Nokia is working on 2 new low end MeeGo handsets, and information was recieved directly from Nokia’s Next Billion Group. http://www.netbooknews.com/47197/nokia-working-on-two-new-low-end-meego-smartphones/ MeeGo?
