Nokia’s Automated Cars with Continental can look around corners

Jay Montano | January 15, 2014 | 6 Replies

At NokConv, Pino writes about the automated connected car that can look around corners using HERE technology. I’m all for advancement of technology and automated self driving cars do sound cool. But I’d still fear for my safety. Maps will have to be super up to date and these cars will need to have their […]

HTC pretty much set themselves up for this letting Nokia twist the knife even more. But it’s all just fun and it was actually quite tasteful. HTC asks how do you use your phone in the cold?

WPC are reporting that there are 7 Disney games that are appearing as FREE for a limited time. Total savings? $15. Indeed they are free as I’ve gone and quickly downloaded (and then uninstalled) some of them. Â Not because I didn’t like them, I didn’t even play it. But I might someday and it helps […]

Panasonic to make tough Windows Phones, Nokia happy to have more competition

Microsoft is said to be working closely with Panasonic to bring some rugged Windows Phone into the field. Now whilst you might think, erm, don’t they have rugged WP already with Nokias, well, it’s good to have more players regardless :p.Perhaps Panasonic might add some actual purpose built rugged devices, versus Nokia phones that […]

Press Render of Nokia Normandy Leaked

Michael Faro-Tusino | January 14, 2014

This popped up earlier this morning and I finally got around to posting it now. It shows off the rumoured Android-fork powered Nokia device, sporting a rather Metro looking UI. It make sense really, as Nokia would obviously try and keep a consistent experience across the portfolio of devices. (Note that evleaks and evleaksES are […]
