Advertisements Bitter. That’s the feeling I get in YLE’s interview with Eldar Murtazin (Why on earth is YLE interviewing him? I am utterly amazed why they now stick with the tag line that he’s a guy that gets a lot of things right. Seems anything wrong has just been forgotten. Also that noting things that […]

Nokia  takes imaging seriously, as evident by the numerous TIPA awards and recognition that the best camera phones come from Nokia. HTC on the other hand, not so much known for strengths in imaging. Lately they’ve been trying to combat this perception (see the 16MP HTC) When the N9 was released, Nokia showed that it […]

Custom Ringtones in Windows Phone 7.1 Mango – Convoluted Mess or Creative approach to ‘new’ features?

Nokia’s always had custom ringtones I’ve been using customizable ringtones since my 3310 allowed editable monophonic ringtones.

This post struck a chord with me as the feedback reflects what we’re getting here. One of the things that came out of the Feb 11 Microsoft Partnership is that Symbian blog, “AllAboutSymbian” could also transition along with Nokia. All About Symbian is of course THE number one place for Symbian-Nokia news. http://www.allaboutsymbian.com/features/item/12927_Trying_WindowsPhone_in_the_rea.php It is […]

With the much anticipated Anna update to Symbian there is something ‘big and important’ coming to Symbian: a portrait keyboard.
