Naming Rant (Again!) – Engadget cracks down on the crappy gadget names, says Lumia is a good start for Nokia

Naming Rant (Again!) – Engadget cracks down on the crappy gadget names, says Lumia is a good start for Nokia

  I love a good rant about product names. In particular, my favourite thing to rant about has been Nokia product names – especially since it’s something Nokia just doesn’t get. I got an opportunity to rant again about this since Engadget brought up the topic, discussing all the dreadful product names, as well as […]

The Facebook applications seems to have notification support FINALLY!!! how does anyone make a Facebook app that doesn’t even support notifications??? Groups or Pages and Events I might understand but notifications are the core […]

The Nokia Lumia 800 Rant. It isn’t for everyone, BUT it is an attractive option for the majority and an amazing job from Nokia.

It’s too early for anyone to be reading this right now I guess, but I’m taking a break from learning cranial nerves. :p Reading the comments on the Nokia Lumia 800 posts, there’s something that I keep repeating in replies. I thought it might be worth summarising my thoughts into one post and just linking […]

Opinion: Nokia N9 does have superior signal

Opinion: Nokia N9 does have superior signal

| October 23, 2011 | 30 Replies

We have heard regularly that the polycarbonate body of the Nokia N9 is supposed to increase signal strength. Unfortunately, I’m not qualified to conduct proper RF tests, but I have conducted my “unofficial, unqualified and possibly inaccurate test”. My test was simple. Compare the signal strength of two phones (N9 and N8) operating on the […]

This is NOT my “two weeks on” review, a little rant if you may. Anything from here-on in is solely speculation.( And massive wishful thinking.) I was digging around in the system files, and came across the icons used throughout the system. Some of which I altered, such as Firefox(Fennec), which I swapped out the […]

Okay so I know I haven’t done the best job out there and I’m the first to agree it was rushed. Mainly because people want to know everything about a phone before they buy it, and seeing as it’s being released already in many countries, there isn’t really the luxury of taking my time. Still, […]
