No button combinations, holding keys or unlock switches – just a somewhat futuristic thumb-flick to the right. A mate of mine stupidly bought an iPhone (first gen) just for the slide to unlock. N97, 5800, 5530 and other S60 […]
On Sunday, thanks to Donna and Robbie from WOMWorld.com/Nokia, I went along with a group people went to the N900 “Push” Workshop. What is Push? “It’s a unique project from Nokia.

I’ve uploaded this just for anyone who wanted to see Gary Birkett, creator of the “Identity” N900 powered installation at the OneDotZero event that happened this weekend.

Nokia N900 Preview-Review This is a quick hardware preview-review of the Nokia N900’s hardware, which is a final production grade. The N900s we were using in London had pre-production firmware.

Maemo UI in action [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Au_uRmoy8Fs] Erm. Wow. Fantastic advert. Are those gesture movements gonna be real or just some idealistic interaction to make the video look better (like what happened with the N97?) FireFox on N900 = […]

It seems they want to “create a new mobile platform beyond smartphones, notebooks and netbooks”. Perhaps the idea is that Nokia is fusing all three […]
Although the above is an artistic render by MobileCrunch (the actual image can’t published for security reasons), what’s more interesting about Nokia’s next Internet Tablet are the specifications: It does Voice GSM – You can finally make phone calls WITHOUT skype to other phones 😀 3.5″ screen but it has 800×480 pixels!
