According to a crudely translated (darn you Google translate) press release by the carrier “3″, Sweden will be getting their hands on the N9 as far away as September 23rd. Here’s to hoping it’s released in its unlocked form and out with other carriers about a month or so prior eh Nokia? And how about [...]
I’d rather not bring this up right after some of us have seen what could easily be one of the most gorgeous and simultaneously functional user interfaces ever seen, but I’m not sure I’ll be getting a MeeGo device or more specifically, this device. Read on to hear why. Unlike Maemo which was the unruly [...]
Just a quick poll for the readers out there. Now that you’ve seen the N9 in all its polycarbonate and glass glory, the all important question remains; will you get one!?!
With a ton of hype surrounding the build-up Nokia Connection in Singapore 2011 got underway only a few minutes after the scheduled date. Starting with a view statistics on the significance of the South-East Asia and Pacific region both in terms of population but in terms of market penetration of mobile devices. After this brief [...]
Marrat noticed something in the reflection from the N900′s screen in the Qt Quick 3D video. Pause the video at 0:49 and see what the N900′s screen is reflecting… Recognize the shape? What phone is recording that video above? It’s got N8 like tapering edges alright. The LED is on, and you can see two [...]
On February 11th amongst the hubbub during the day, Head of Nokia’s MeeGo Computers, Alberto Torres left the company. Taking his place and now in charge of MeeGo for Nokia is Sebastian Nyström who is now Head of MeeGo, Qt and Webkit at Nokia. Over at the MeeGo Blog, Peter Schneider, head of MeeGo Marketing [...]
I saw @zehjotkah tweet early this morning about Hildon UI on a Lenovo. A quick search revealled indeed that this Maemo 5 UI was on the MeeGo Lenovo ST10-3t (by smokkku) There’s also another video of Hildon desktop on a joggler device (by fukywak) Looking back to 2009, there was NOTHING really wrong with Maemo [...]
Here’s the Nokia Developer Day keynote titled, “Nokia’s Three Year Ecosystem Vision”from MWC with Nokia’s CTO Rich Green (ex Sun Software boss), some guests and other members of the Nokia team. It’s roughly 50 minutes over four videos. I’ve copied some slides down from first two vids but note, Rich mentions more around those slides. [...]
Collating the Nokia N9 (AND x7) rumours thus far. A lot is just hear-say. Some things are mentioned by quite reliable sources (people who are somehow close to these unannounced handsets) and some are garnered from blog comments. Wishful thinking? Idle Gossip? Snippets of leaks? Well they’re all fun to consider. That’s all we ever [...]
Ovi store publishing, usually used by developers for publishing their work, allows them to select the target devices . While doing so, LogonAniket from twitter found this : This happened to show up during phone selection. It clearly confirms the existence of the previously leaked Nokia E6-00 with a VGA resolution( 640×480 ). Also there [...]
Here are some rumours to be taken with some pinches of salt. First is that the Nokia N9 is coming in April (this year ?:p) and another MeeGo DEVICE 6 weeks later. A tablet perhaps or another phone? The same pperson @VHAho also reckons some bad corporate news coming from Nokia in February? Apparently this [...]
My Dream Nokia Number 8 comes by way of Jim who found these concept MeeGo Phone Photos on the MeeGo forum. They’re designed by a guy called “SuperHero” who is an old user of Linux, the Nokia n900 and a programmer. It is titled Nokia N9. There are no details other than what can be [...]
I don’t know what this is about but Adnan sent in a screenshot from @SimonLR who’s twitter says he’s tweeting from Nokia N9 and Nokia N9 Widget. -WOW -I’m just going to leave this tweet here and see what happens -There’s home screen widgets – This keyboard is spacious -Ovi Store doesn’t work Simon’s friend, [...]
Marko Ahtisaari, Nokia SVP design speaks at Le Web conference about the new Nokia MeeGo UI. There’s also a Q&A and a little post interview video. In the Q&A when asked about when, and if better than iPhone, Marko says 2011, only when MeeGo and this supposed new paradigm or “pattern” in the UI is [...]
Some more MeeGo specification rumours are surfacing and this is somewhat hard to believe. A conversation between @camb078 and @addiermedina reveals some exciting number crunching figures especially after an initial typo indicated 19M polygons/s, later corrected to an incredible 190 polygons/second. (The PS2 at 66M/S, PS3 at 275M/S, Wii ~ 100M/S, 360 at 300M/S, N8 [...]
Check it out! It’s a MeeGo phone – an Intel Atom powered MeeGo phone spotted in Russia from unknown “Hi/Lo Vibrant”. This is the second(?) Intel MeeGo phone that’s graced my eyes, the first being from Aava Mobile with Moorsetown. The early N9 leaked proto photos as far as we know are ARM based though [...]
A couple of days ago MyNokiaBlog.com reader, Marcin, mentioned the ST Ericsson U8500 for MeeGo “ST-Ericsson U8500 Linaro and MeeGo 11.30 -12.10, November 16th, 2010 MeeGo Convergence Dublin:D” Above is a video by Charbax fromarmdevices.net/ showing a reference design for U8500 with MeeGo on it (cheers to @Cambo078 for the find), which would apparently be [...]
My Dream Nokia #3 – response to the “My Dream Nokia” idea from Alberto: Thomas Boutroue sends in his Dream Nokia – the Nokia N9-01 “My dream’s nokia may be the N9-01 : a N900 in better (better hardware, alu casing, bigger screen, and MeeGo” His dream specs are on the side but just to [...]
A while back, Eldar didn’t seem too positive about the N9 and was actually supposed to leak his review early August. Whatever happened since then, he’s kept silent (no N8esque reveal) and was found today to say “Nokia N9 Hardware is near perfect, I like it.” NEAR PERFECT? And it’s Eldar saying this? About a [...]
I was just checking my email and confirming attendance to Nokia World (yay! thanks Mark!) when I came across this (via JFH, thanks bud!). Remember that old video with the supposed Nokia N9 sporting a Nokia N7 (RM-626) style slider? Here it seems to be. The first MeeGo phone from Nokia which will officially début [...]
A lot of hopes are resting on MeeGo phone to be instrumental in Nokia’s reclamation of the high end smartphone arena. There’s the N8, and other rumoured Symbian^3 devices which are awesome in their own right. But some would argue that they are high-mid and not completely and convincingly all high end. It seems for [...]
